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 look in good shape.

This gold-plated CJ-5 sold on eBay in 2013.

This was posted on Facebook. It looks pretty early based on the logo design.
This is a neat brochure.

In 1959 Belleview Manufacturing introduced an electric winch. The company sold them (6000lb and 8000lb versions) through Warn Industries, since they manufactured other products for Warn also. However, based on the ad below, they may have marketed them to other resellers, since the ad doesn’t mention Warn at all.
The ad below was in the March 9, 1967, issue of the Sundance Times, a Wyoming newspaper. By the time the ad appeared, Warn had already purchased all the Belleview Manufacturing Stock, as the small caption below Thurston Warn’s photo indicates (which is on eBay). The next year, Thurston Warn became President of Warn.
Maury found this rare “Mouse that Roared” Peter Sellers’ movie lobby card. I remember watching and enjoying this years ago.
This was on eBay. I bid on it for a while, but it got too rich for me. Finally sold for $199.35. Congrats to whomever won it!
“This is a original Willys Jeep Dealer Sales Catalog, the front page is dated 1965. This is roughly 103 sheets of original brochures from Jeep and the Accessory Manufacturers in a three ring binder, making it about 206 pages of information. The front cover says Government Sales. It has the Jeep Universal and Cab Forward models along with all specifications and every approved accessory I could think of and a lot I would never have thought existed. Some pretty interesting accessories from the expected winches, lockout hubs, PTO’s, Cabs, etc. to the unexpected like complete fire fighting units, agriculture equipment, street sweepers, camper shell, aftermarket bodies, wreckers and on and on. The photos just show some of the pages, I used up all of the photos just showing some of the content. It is used and out of dry storage in dry New Mexico so there is no mustiness to it. The pages look like they have been used very little, however it is 50 years old so there is some expected shop wear from age, nothing real major that I could see. I think the photos pretty much show the treasure trove of information in this book better than I can explain it.”
This is a cool wagon brochure.
