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 .

(10/20/2015) Doesn’t start.
“This Jeep gets looks! The body is a 1946 Willys and sits on a S-10 frame. Currently has a GM 350 With a TH 350 trans. The transmission has recently been totally professionally rebuilt with a warranty. Unfortunately last time I drove it the oil pressure dropped and the engine has suffered. I don’t know the extent of the damage to the engine but it won’t start. It does turn over but the engine needs work or replaced. It’s not hard to find a 350 to put in it. Lots of room for any size of engine. There are a few extras like the roll cage with lights, bull horn, 30mm shell shifter, locking gas tank, and Army ammo can storage. The whole front end has new parts like the gear box, upper and lower ball joints, idle arm, and tie rods. This jeep needs to go to someone that loves her. She is easy to work on with the S-10 frame. Comes with a tow bar that hooks to the bumper. It’s ready for you to take home!”

Joe found this video built from Band of Brothers’ clips. Pretty well done. The embedding has been turned off, so you’ll have to go to youtube to see it (click on the image below).
Seth spotted this hard to find part.
“This is a used bilge pump and propeller shaft PTO for a Ford GPA Amphibious Jeep. If you are lucky enough to own a GPA you know how rare these are. Both levers shift in an out just fine. The levers have casting #’s of GPA 1548 and GPA 7248. The number on the housing is 7 38 1. Great item to have as a spare or if you are missing the PTO this is your chance to help complete your GPA. This PTO has been sitting on the shelf for over 40 years. Please look at the pictures to make sure this is what your looking for.”
