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 .
Given the wedding theme of the last week, Steve shared the following photo.
Steve writes, “Jumping on the bandwagon of the “Just Married” photo theme, the attached photo is of my honeymoon car that toured Central Oregon in September 1995. I took this today showing how my Jeepster looked the week following my wedding day.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9200.
Looks like a solid GPW.
“I have a nice WWII 1943 GPW Ford jeep for sale. Runs well, has new master cylinder ( haven’t bled the brakes yet but will shortly) . Call with questions. ”
There’s been some work done near the step. Engine needs to be wired.

This sounds like a solid panel wagon, though needs some TLC.

No Tire Kickers, this is an old truck, looks like an old truck, needs some tlc like an old truck”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
You’ll need a passenger side panel at the very least. This appears to be a mix of parts.

(06/28/2012) The more I looked at the paint job the more I kind of liked it. The steering column is installed pretty low. I imagine you’ll really have to squeeze to get into the driver’s seat.

Ann and I thank everyone for the congratulations and well wishes!! We have been busy cleaning up after the wedding and spending time with my kids, so my eWillys time has been a bit crunched. I’ve got a few updates below.
Here is a pic from the wedding. No, there weren’t any jeeps involved in the wedding, however I did receive an embroidered eWillys hat and Ann an embroidered eWillys purse, so those will make an appearance on here soon.
The wedding was fun. Moments before the ceremony started my parents’ dog Jill realized that there were dogs just across the fence from her, causing her to start a major barking and growling episode. I had to jump into the surrounding bushes and chase her away. That even was quickly followed by a young child throwing up. The parent grabbed the child and rushed to the bathroom. Part way through the crowd, the child threw up again, causing guests to dodge digested matter. What fun would a wedding be without kids and dogs . . .
