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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000
This sports some old, used up desert dog tires.

I did some searches for ‘Willys Snowflakes’. Not surprisingly, I couldn’t find any. However, I did find this wonderful watercolor illustration done by M.H. Keough from the UK.
She writes on Flickr, “I love painting military vehicles ‘settling in for the long rust’. There’s a quiet dignity surrounding these old warhorses that I hope my art conveys.”
You can see the photo on Flickr here.
You can go to her blog here. Fine prints (22″ x 16″) are available through her website, however her online store seems down?
Roberto tells me he is practicing his French. Here’s an illustration he made the other day. I believe it roughly translates as, ‘it is so cold even ducks will freeze’. Yes, winter is here! Of course, as always, Roberto slipped in a jeep . . .

It has new tires, brakes and wheel cylinders, master cylinder, brake lines, shocks, battery, fuel pump, clutch, pressure plate, plugs and wires, main bearings, re-built crank, rod bearings, pistons, rings, cam, valves, guides, valve seats, gaskets and seals. It runs great. The chrome is show quality and complete. The steering wheel is original and restored in our shop. All of the glass is new. The wiring is completely new and color coded to factory specs. The car has been driven 50 miles for testing since completed and everything works correctly. The interior is new including the canvas top and top boot as well as the carpet, side curtains and storage. The gauges have been restored and calibrated. This car was in dry storage for 35 years before we started the restoration. The entire car was stripped to bare metal. The frame was sandblasted and undercoated. The body has 3 coats of primer then 2 coats of base coat and 2 coats of high quality clear coat. The underside of the body is all undercoated. I have about 300 pictures of the entire restoration from start to finish. The engine is the original L-134 and the transmission is the original 3 speed with overdrive. Nothing was compromised during this restoration, right down to every nut and bolt.There are more photos on the website, Or call for more info 904-669-8668 Jm
