About eWillys
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.
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: Same seller is selling a second version of this press photo on eBay. See the first one sold in 2014 at the bottom.
“1948 Press Photo Lieutenant Colonel William E. Jennings in Jeep through Greece. This is an original press photo. Lieutenant Colonel William E. Jennings, Watervliet, Michigan, drives Jeep through mud caused by unseasonable rains and snows which plagued the Roumeli offensive, first spring drive by the Greek National Army against Guerrillas.

Originally published October 31, 2012: I stumbled across some Flickr Images of the Clark County, Nevada, Sheriff’s Office Jeep Posse. I searched for a website for the group, but could only find a Sheriff site.
“1955 Willys M-170 Frontline Ambulance, 24 volt system, needs some TLC, haven’t done anything to it in the past 6 years but it is still in great condition, runs great, some extra parts”
(06/24/2013) Given it doesn’t look like there was any gas filler on the driver’s side, I’m not sure what body this is front. Maybe DJ or repro? Looks like a nice build.
