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 .

The is very preliminary, but there may be an opportunity to have a small batch of F-head headers produced. I don’t know a price yet, but my question is, would there be 5-10 people interested in a header if the price worked out reasonably? These would also fit L-heads, though, as I understand it, they wouldn’t be all that effective in producing extra power for the L-heads. Comment below or email me at d @ deilers.com (no spaces around the @).
Thanks go to Tremaine Cooper for sending me this unique cutting board. I do love cutting boards of all shapes and sizes, so this will go nicely with the others I have. This will get used. Many thanks!
I’ve photographed it next to a Vodka bottle to show the size.
Thanks to Gayland for sending me this brochure of the Electruck, an electric powered DJ-5E made by AM General.
Gayland also sent this standard DJ-5L Dispatcher 100 brochure, form AMG 7-80.
Maury spotted this unusual patch. Neither of us have seen one before.

“100% authentic. I do NOT sell reproduction patches. Thank you. Patch came with some of the other items you are seeing us list today. very likely 1970’s dealership or even early 80’s, but considering the group of stuff it came with we are going with the 1970’s. Don’t try using the iron-on backing – it is too old and will likely destroy the patch.”
Nice shot.

“One day in 2013, I was talking with a buddy and he asked if I was interested in a Willys Jeep and since I was thinking about a “project” car, I said yes. Well, I got this little gem on a farm in the Hood River Valley! I call it Taz Willy and he has won several trophies at car shows! But, as happens with time, I have purchased a travel trailer and will be doing more traveling so I decided to give someone else the opportunity to have fun with Taz.
Even though he was used in the orchard as a spraying machine, and stored for quite a while, he was in good shape and all the dried mud on his underside protected him from rusting! I stripped him down to his frame and painted it with frame paint to continue his protection.
The engine has been rebuilt by Portland Engine Rebuild using the original f-head engine block. It is the 4 cylinder stock engine. Engine has 925 miles – all road miles.
The transmission is the original– 3-speed with compound low. This required only replacement of fluid. I works good.
