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 .

(07/31/2012) Apparently, this looks good from 10 feet, but not so good closer.
“this jeep was set up for parade in 2000 looks good @ten feet ,runs good, all stock.”
Walter spotted these.
“I have 3 original OG OD green factory steel rims I’d like 2 sell. I scored ’em a while back off e-bay,…& lost the 4th one right @ the end of the auction,…hence I only have three. I was going 2 put ’em on my ’64 CJ 5,…but I have since sold that Jeep. These rims are solid,…a few licks w/a wire brush,…primer and paint & they will B good 2 go. They will fit any CJ or military Jeep of that era. No curbing that I have detected,…they look good and straight 2 me. I paid $75.00 each for them plus shipping. I’d like 2 get my money back out of ’em. I will consider reasonable offers. Plz contact me @ (910) 620-4494. Calls are better,…the display on my phone is jacked, so it’s hard 2 make out texts. Hope someone out there can use these,…I’m trying 2 clean out the garage. Thanks 4 looking. -K-”

I had updates scheduled to go out early on Monday morning, but they didn’t appear (related to changes I made to reduce resource use on my current server … grrrr). So, I’ve just pushed them out manually tonight.
Meanwhile, tonight my internet is down. So, I spent time researching and then playing around with the cover to my new book. Everything on the cover could change — title, subtitle, arrangement, my pseudonym, colors — I’m just working it through. Mom’s read the first draft and really enjoyed it. But, hey, it’s my mom. For fun here’s the book front cover draft, and I emphasize draft. Still lots of work left before its ready.
Gerald spotted this M-38A1-turned-flower-planter near the Crafted Warehouse at the Port of Los Angeles. There appear to be salvageable parts left.
This photo is for sale on eBay.

Lycoming developed a generator/starter for planes that fit in the back of a jeep. I am guessing that this ad is probably from an aviation magazine, because I found an article about the Lycoming generator in the 1952 Aviation Weekly. Unfortunately, I could only view a snippet of it in Google. There is also a discussion of it at the CJ-3B Page.
