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 .
I found some Australian pictures at “The Brigade” that included three Bantam BRC-40 photos. There is a Ford GP photo as well. See all the vintage pictures here: http://thebrigade.thechive.com/2011/05/30/the-jeep-worked-hard-in-wwii-33-photos/
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This riding radio flyer with a jeep grille is pretty cool. If only I had known about this when my kids were small.
“This is a well used vintage wood push car from Radio Flyer. The front looks like a jeep. There are some cracks in the wood as well as stains and fading. The steering and horn works and has a squeaker inside. The car measures 24″ long and 14” wide including the tires. This car is very well used and has some issues but still rolls and steers fine. The largest crack is on the left “drivers” side and measures 6″ long.”
Here’s a neat golf and jeep ad from 1965.

This is one of a limited edition of bronze sculptures featuring the jeep at a military checkpoint. Read this article for more information. http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1893&dat=19880717&id=ncFQAAAAIBAJ&sjid=PccMAAAAIBAJ&pg=2512,1973525
“Up for auction is a RARE Limited Edition patinated bronze sculpture manufactured by Don Sommer’s American Arrow Corporation. The bronze “CHECKPOINT” is a limited edition sculpture released by Chrysler Corporation in 1988 of the 1941 military Army JEEP. The bottom reads “SERIES 3 #0722″ made in USA by the American Arrow Corp. It looks as though it is signed on the top right base but I can’t make out the name. The base is about 10 x 6.5 inches and the Jeep itself is about 5.5 inches long. The JEEP (MB5 ?) and the soldiers are nicely detailed. This is very heavy, approximately 6 pounds. This sculpture is RARE and is in very good used condition!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
I liked that the jeep fire truck and the cargo personnel carrier showed up in the ad. They are pretty rare to see in ads.
“ORIGINAL RARE 1956 CANADA KAISER WILLYS JEEP FIRE TRUCK AMBULANCE CARGO SEDAN AD ALL MODELS SHOWN
THIS IS THE FIRST TIME WE HAVE SEEN THIS CANADIAN AD IN 11 YEARS AND WE HAVE SOLD MANY CANADIAN WILLYS ADS.

This is located in Canada, but was originally mailed to a dealer in Iowa.

The other pics are a little small, but it appears solid.

Standard wheels for jeep on the side. Jeep is 100% solid, immaculate, and rust free. Trailer is solid but could use fresh paint.”

If I owned this jeep, I think I’d burn myself on the exhaust when I exited it.
