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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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: Still Available. This looks like a great price on a solid looking trail jeep.
This seller is also selling a GPW.

Crosley was the maker of some of the prototype lightweight Jeeps the Army and Willys considered building. Apparently, Crosley continued down this path of lightweight utility vehicles. One of the results of this efforts was designed by the Crosley company and called a Farm-O-Road. The Crofton Bug, based on the Farm-O-Road design was actually produced by the Crofton Marine Engine Company. Only about 250 Crofton Bugs were built between 1959 and 1962 (or 1963). Like the jeep, these had some farm tools you could attach to these ‘mini jeeps’. You can learn more about this 1100lb vehicle at Tom’s Crofton Bug website.
Thanks to Gerald for finding these two pics.
Here’s Tom’s Crofton Bug and a few of his pics. Drop by his website to learn more about the Crofton Bug and see more images and brochures.

Gerald send these pics:
1st up, his brother’s build — This is a mixed 1948 CJ-2A. The front loop is actually out of the red willys you’ll see in the next picture. They had it stored in the garage for about 15 years. Reuse and recycle. Perfect!
Here’s Gerald’s Mom racing around the track around 1979.
These M715 pics are from Sam Winer Motors in Akron around 1992, all crushed now. I loved that place back then.:
Here’s Gerald’s brother’s cool 1940 Bantam coupe with the 22 hp Hill Master engine in it.
I thought the padding on this was unusual.
