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 .
Doug suggested I do a search at Youtube on “Willys Jeep Tracks”. I found two interesting videos.
In this video, a CJ-2A is fitted with tracks, one track on each side.
In this video, a jeep wrangler is fitted with tracks on each wheel
Thanks to Dave (Hog) for pointing out this unusual item — Jeep Tea cups. First off, the price on these seems nuts –$9999 — seriously? Maybe I just don’t know the market for tea cups. Also, the seller claims these are WWII tea cups, but, based on the jeep, those are Korean War Cups at the earliest.

One little mod I’ve been meaning to implement was the installation of some drain holes for the driver and passenger side floors. This allows the interior of the body to easily be sprayed out after a day in the dirt.
I knew I didn’t simply want holes; instead I wanted holes with stoppers. But, I was concerned the stoppers would wear on the fiberglass. So, the other day I drove down the road and browsed around the local Home Depot store to see what I could find.
One idea I had was to check out the PVC aisle to see if there were any stoppers for PVC Pipe. After looking around, I discovered some $.15 stoppers that could fit into 2″ PVC I already had. So, I bought the stoppers and went to work.
First, I drilled 2″ holes with a drill saw. Then, I cut two pieces (one for each side) PVC to about 4″ (my fiberglass body has two layers of fiberglass with a foam core). I then used some handy marine glue to stick the PVC in place. It takes the marine glue about 7 days to cure, but once cure, it’s there for life. Here are the finished results — nothing fancy, but it gets the job done.
Here’s the hole with the stopper in place. I still need to put some herculiner around the edges to blend everything in better.
This image shows the stopper out and the top of the hole:
This image shows the bottom of the hole:
