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 .
It’s missing the siren/horn on front and isn’t in perfect shape, but the price seems good. Thanks to Andy for sharing.

“Vintage STRUCTO kiddie ride-on toy. Fire Dept. No. 26 Pumper Truck 25-1/2” long 10” wide 13” high”
Here’s an odd ball toy that the seller suggests is from Marx. I can’t confirm that. The seller is only asking $5 for it.

“Vintage Marx Willys Jeep. Plastic that has been painted. Axles and wheels turn.”
This Jumpin jeep has some damage (as noted by the Facebook seller), but is still a fairly rare item. Thanks to Andy for sharing it.

“This vintage wind-up toy is perfect for collectors who appreciate the craftsmanship of the past. Made by Marx, this tin litho Smokey Sam Fire Chief Jeep Whoopie Car is a must-have for any vintage toy enthusiast. The brand, Marx, is known for producing high-quality toys that stand the test of time. This particular toy is vintage and has been used, but it still retains a lot of its original charm. It features a wind-up mechanism that spins the fire chief’s head. This toy has certainly been loved, and there’s some minor damage to the fire hat, front of the Jeep, and ladder on one side (see photos).”
UPDATE: Geoffrey won this Al-Toy body auction on eBay and then got the lights working. He’s wondering if anyone has a parts to help make it into more of a complete model?? It appears he needs wheels and a windshield at the very least.

Bill shared this rather high price for a Nelly Belle pedal jeep.

“A 1954 NellyBelle Jeep pedal car in unrestored but still in usable condition, well as long as you’re on the smaller of stature side. Perfect for a mancave or to bring along when you show off your real CJ2A. Now a bit of history thanks to Onlinebicyclemuseum.co.uk ‘NellyBelle’ was among the most popular items of Roy Rogers memorabilia sold during the currency of the TV show, (and since), and jeep models were sold in various forms. A small diecast model was marketed by Stuart, and a 15″ plastic ‘Nellybelle’ was sold by Ideal, complete with a trailer, character figures and Trigger the horse. Marx made a large pressed-steel version, as well as a plastic model in its Roy Rogers Rodeo Ranch Set. The pressed-steel Marx model was the most accurate in colour to the original: with a plastic Pat Brady driving and Dale Evans in the passenger seat, it was 11.75″ long and 5″ wide, and included the cut-out below the windscreen on the passenger side through which Roy Rogers shot his gun. Saddle up pardner!”
