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 managed to lose the original I had about the folks that own the rights to the IH Scout brand, which was interesting, but the nut of the article was about the revival of the “Scout” as an EV vehicle under the Volkswagen brand. Here’s an article that explains the EV company:

Very confusing, A Company that owns the Scout Name, has made a deal with VW (bug) to build a Electric Scout (NOT IH) Does this indicate VW will now sell their brand name Rabbit, or maybe an electric BUG and name it FIREFLY? Who can keep track of all this name switching, confusion is used as a method of control.
It kinda makes sense.
Kubelwagen & Thing (both 2wd only, though most people don’t know that) aside, VW doesn’t have much of a “Jeep”-ish heritage in the U.S. (The post-war 4wd Iltis was produced in Canafa for the Canadian military, however.)
Say, your company somehow has the rights to the old IH name and Scout likeness but don’t have a prayer of getting your own vehicle on the market…so why not lease the intellectual property rights?
Makes sense, but don’t blame me when we have a Chinese owned Volvo named “Cord”!
