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 .

Cool old pedal jeep. I’m not sure what type. The price seems a bit over the top given the seller can’t identify it either.

Fabrice Liotard has a huge collection of military jeep toys. He also spent a lot deal of time photographing, identifying, and posting them to his French website:
http://jeepytoys.pagesperso-orange.fr/ .
Two jeeps he recently purchased in Germany have red painted stars on their hoods (european scale 1/28 / U.S. Scale 4.92in). He was wondering anyone has information about them. If you do, you can contact him through Facebook. If you don’t have Facebook, feel free to contact me and I’ll forward your thoughts to him:

Plans for this sidewalk jeep were posted on eBay for sale. Originally published in the March 1948 issue of POPULAR MECHANICS, the plans are also available for free at Google Books.
Given these were designed to be punched, this is likely a pretty rare item. The seller certainly believes it is! Great piece. You can see other types of punchcards here: http://www.ebay.com/bhp/punch-board
“WONDERFUL WWII JEEP PUNCH BOARD.
PIECE IS UNUSED, BUT PUNCH IS MISSING FROM THE BACK.
THIS WILL STAND UPRIGHT WITH THE WHEELS TURNING WHEN ROLLED.
IT MEASURES APPX. 9 1/2 TALL 11 1/4 WIDE & 3 1/2 INCHES DEEP.
GREAT ESTATE FIND!!!!!”

Glenn Woudenberg wrote me a note saying this pedal jeep was spotted at a Bazaar in Mumbai, India. That seems to me to be a good excuse to go to India. It kind of has a ‘high hood’ feel to it. The wheels look similar to a Tri-ang.
If I weren’t saving for our March California trip, I’d bid on this pair.
“For your consideration is an Empire & Carolina Enterprises plastic jeep and trailer (1976). The jeep measures 16 inches long. These are in overall good condition with wear, marks, scratches, and bends. The trailer has a broken hook, but these will display very nicely.”

I don’t know how rare this toy is, but it looks like an interesting piece. I googled to find another example, but couldn’t locate one. This toy is located in Mexico, so know that before purchasing it. Given the Mad Max label on the box, I’m wondering if this is more like mid 1980s?
“VINTAGE RARE AND NICE, ALITALIA MITSUBISHI JEEP J52, MADE IN JAPAN CIRCA 70’S. BY THE EXTINCT FACTORY MADMAX SCALE 1/43, IN VERY GOOD CONDITIONS, IN BOX, I AM NOT EXPERT TO EXPLANE THE KIND OF ITEMS BUT I TRY TO WRITE THE BEST I KNOW, IF YOU ARE COLLECTOR OF THIS CAIN OF TOYS, PLEASE DON’T LET PASS THE OPORUNITY TO HAVE THEM IN YOUR HANDS, VERY, VERY RARE!!”

It looks like Blaine did well at a collectible toy swap meet. The yellow ride-on jeep is from 1979 and was made in Canada.
