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 .
These 2 jeeps will be auctioned next Saturday. No good pic of the CJ-5 provided.

Here’s the interview the CBC Yukon did with Hugo Vidal on August 1st in Whitehorse, Yukon, which was also the night of his 84th birthday. It recounts his trip through Whitehorse in 1955.
I was sitting with Hugo when he did the interview. Unfortunately, during parts of the interview, Around the 4:42 mark he asks “have I told you the little poem” well that was him turning to me (away from the microphone). I was thinking at the time, NO … keep talking to the interviewer!!

The seller lists this as a 1954 brochure, but given there’s a chart dated “May 1955”, I’m gonna guess this is more like 1955 or 1956. The auction ends about 8am PST Saturday.
“Up for Auction is a Very Rare and Amazing 1954 Operators Like Mr.Service Find Profit in The ”Jeep” and Jeep Wrecker with 4 Wheel Drive Universal Brochure/Advertisement, top right corner has a tiny piece missing in very good condition.”

This brochure was designed in Zurich. This copy was sent to Willys Afrika circa 1960(?). It’s for sale out of Great Britain, so there’s a hefty charge for mailing to the US.

“You are bidding on a rare prototype ford jeep known as the GP. This is a very early first series GP. Although incomplete it comes with many parts. The frame is in excellent condition. The tub will need repair and I’m including the front and rear floor replacement panels. Here’s a quick list of included items but I do have more that goes with the project. I have a title that matches the vin on the frame. This is your chance to get your hands on one at a very reasonable price.
1. Rolling chassis (correct axles)
2. Original tub
3. Transmission
4. Transfer case

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4150.
This could be worth a look. Has an early 0-10 speedometer.
“Here’s your chance to own a classic piece of history! This little jeep is in pretty decent condition and runs like a top with it’s original 134ci 4 cylinder engine and 3spd transmission…
It’s bright yellow paint with black trim has garnered the name “Bumble Beep” and it definitely grabs some stares when people see it! It is a very solid southern tub and frame that looks to have been restored 15-20 years ago but does have a few rust bubbles starting on the fenders. The 4×4 drive-train is good and solid which all seems to work as it should and drives much better than you would expect from this type of vehicle!
This would make a GREAT wagon for the hunter heading to the not so accessible areas or to hook behind your motorhome and head to the mountains on vacation! It has it’s original bench seat, all the lights and signals work along with the unmistakable jeep horn “BEEP BEEP”…….. It has the spare mounted to the side and the G.I. can on the rear which can come in handy out in the Boonies! The only thing that I can say doesn’t work is the fuel guage…
If your tired of looking at the junk out there but would really like to have an old jeep from this era then you really need to take a look at this little fun wagon that’s ready to get in and ENJOY!!!”
Looks in good shape. Has a Kelly Hardtop.
