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 .

Mark was asking about the side auxiliary windows on a Meyer hardtop and wonder if those were custom made or a factory option. This four page Meyer brochure answers that question.
This 1944 Ad out of the Southeast Missourian featured “Jim” piloting what looks like a Ford GP.
For anyone that missed Jeep’s Superbowl commercial, here it is:
The Victoria Advocate featured this story in the December 12, 1956, issue of the Victoria Advocate. Just below the article was an ad for the FC-150.
It’s a classic.

Your headaches are over if you buy a jeep? That’s a new one! This was published in the Schenectady Gazette Feb 19, 1946.
UPDATE: Glenn shared this pic of restored Mahl Jeep Loader. It’s located near Minneapolis.
ORIGINAL POST FROM 2012:
There appears to be an article about the Mahl Loader in the 1949 Municipal Journal & Engineer, Volume 80, but I can’t read the whole article. Farm Implement News, Volume 70 page 149, from 1949 also has an article, again I can’t read the whole thing.
Maury scanned and shared this CJ-5 Brochure. It is easy to forget how many accessories were offered for the CJ-5 in 1970. Of course, this doesn’t include other aftermarket parts that were available.
Maury spotted these engine brochures. I can’t tell if they are one page or multi-page.
