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 .
It looks in good shape, but there are a few dents on the inside.

License is current. it has had a lot of parts replaced, it is ready to use.”
I’d never heard of the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum, located in McMinnville. However, Ann visited there a few years ago and says it’s a beautiful museum. Moreover, there is a B-52 there that they allowed her to go underneath so she could describe how they used to load and unload weapons. The Spruce Goose is also there.
Besides all the airplanes, the museum also has a jeep. This picture was taken by Joe Swallia on 2011. Note the hubs. They looks like early Warn hubs.
