Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .
I just picked this pin up off of ebay thanks to Maury!
There are two more, though not quite as nice, on eBay right now (you can make an offer on them), from a different seller.
I think these came in a box of Post cereal when originally marketed in the !950’s. ten years ago when moving, I found unopened box of Post Toasties from the early 1950’s. On the back of the box was an offer for a miniature Roy Rogers play set. I remember the story that goes with the box of Toasties, (of course I remember, everything from 60 years ago, nothing that I did yesterday) my mom said to me, finish the open box of cereal, then you can open the Post Toasties. Like most kids of my era, I never finished the first box of cereal, and that’s how the Toasties remained unopened for all those years.
You had me at an “unopened box of Post Toasties from the early 1950’s” ….. How many unopened cereal boxes were there? You should have ebayed that box, lol, or donated it to science to see if the cereal was still edible 🙂
Nelly Belle the jeep as been on craigslist recentley, Not the original but the stand in, for the kids to sit in, and public display.
ok , PAT BRADY was the one who drove NELLYBELLE the jeep , can anybody figure why they drove a JEEP in a cowboy tv show ? doesn’t make a lot of SENSE ?? and we can all agree on this , PAT BRADY was a fairly annoying sidekick , i hope he wasn’t like that in REAL LIFE ?? i did some work for SLIM PICKENS once in Sonora , cal , and he was a much more PALATABLE sidekick …
We have that pin in our showcase. I bet kids in ’53 were a little disappointed to open their cereal box and dig for this pin finding it was only one inch in diameter. Almost like a Cracker Jack prize.
