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 .
This Go-For-Digger trencher brochure is undated and has no form number. It’s likely from the late 1950s.

This is how the brochure looks when fully opened:

Vernon,
Now you have me wondering if that’s the axle setup we had in the back of our Dually camper that was built in the 1960s. Ours looked similar to this: https://www.nicetoownrv.com/2015/08/1965-chevy-c30-open-road-camper-project.html

It is a Dana 70. The early Dana 70s which were also in Dodges had a different pinion offset which used a different thickness of ring gear and carrier and is hard to get parts for. Bearings are easy of course.
Dave, did your Open Road have the fold down patio on the back?
I never heard of a 13×2.5″ rear brake size? Thats why I love ewillys. Learn something new everyday
John: I didn’t see that brake info. I’m sure that extra stopping power was useful.
Blaine: No, it didn’t have the patio. There was only a window in the rear. Dad subsequently added a 2ft compartment on the back and installed a generator and a place to put tools. Somewhere I have a pic of it; still looking …
We have a 1963 jeep like the pic above. For sale
Hi Norman,
I’d be happy to list it on eWillys if interested. You can email me at d@deilers.com and either send me a link if you have it listed elsewhere or send me 1) a description, 2) your location, 3) your price, 4) some pics, 5) your preferred method of contact for buyers (email/phone/both). If you have questions, just ask!
