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 .
Bill shared this article link about Vigilante 4×4 in Texas, but I forgot to post it last night. The company focuses on restomods of classic jeeps.

Over the last few weeks readers have sent several gifts my way, so I wanted to thank folks. In late August, after we pondered naming the Alpine Coach the “Batmobile” (given we found a bat in it), Alaska Paul and the Goddess Deborah sent us a set of hanging bat lights and other bat related accessories. They will make a great evening addition to the coach.
A few weeks later, Michael kindly sent me a couple hot wheels jeeps, neither of which I had. So, a big thanks to him for that.
Finally, yesterday I received something from TJ I’ve wanted for years, but never got around to getting for myself: An aluminum finned transfercase pan. It’s thicker and stouter than I expected. I’ll install it on Biscuit when I get to working on it.
Roger Martin is hoping to find a set of 1960s front hubcaps with the hole in them. He currently has the hubcaps as shown in the pic below, but would like to add some selective hubs to the front of the jeep. You can email Roger at rogerjm55 @ gmail.com (remove the spaces from around the @).
I’ve been busy building 2 sets of corn hole boards, while also getting a good parking spot built for the motorhome. We have a family event in two weeks, so I’m also busy cleaning up the shop (much to do). So, I’ve not done much on the tour jeep in several weeks.
In the video below, Jamie wanted a vintage jeep, but found affordable vintage jeeps either too expensive or in poor shape. So, he decided to build one from scratch. Here’s his story captured by TrailWalker on Youtube:
UPDATE: Still Available. Here’s some additional information on the lengths of the jeep and trail.
Jeep is 18′
Trailer is 14′
Plus 5′ for the trailer tongue.
Grand total of 37′ long
