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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 .
On October 28, 1954, Kaiser Willys announced the addition of The Western Duty Snow Plows to the Special Equipment line.
Always preferred the Western Plow to any other brand, including Meyer. This goes back to 1962 when my dad had a Western plow installed on his 1950 CJ3A, (Mide Motors Garfield NJ) from that point on, it has always been a Western plow on my Jeeps, with one exception. At some point in time in the mid 1960’s, Meyer Plows got the seal of approval as Jeep special equipment, and as a result, Jeep dealers favored sales of Meyer plows at the expense of Western. When I was in the market for a plow in 1968 for my 1960 wagon, I could find no dealer who would sell me a western plow, ended up having to buy a 7′ Meyer.
Just out of curiosity, one Sunday I took a ride to the Kaiser Jeep Distribution warehouse in Nyack, NY, the fenced in property was abundant with new Meyer plows, not one Western plow in sight.
