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 .
Here are two different ads that are listed on eBay.
This 1951 ad shows two pictures of trucks and two pictures of a farm jeep in action.
This 1957 Ad shows an FC and a CJ-5
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
Someone didn’t check their facts before producing this car. The fire jeep looks good.

Here’s a neat little ad that’s up for auction on eBay. I couldn’t say how rare it really is or if many people collect them though.

This is a Topps chewing gum card that shows a CJ-3B. At Dean’s Cards, this is only $5.00. I looked for some other Topps cards with jeeps, but couldn’t find any more.
“1954/55, I would grade very good with light wear. Please see scans to make your own evaluation. E-mail with any questions. Thanks for looking!”

The Valley Fire Truck Company, based in Bay City, Michigan, converted basic willys truck chassis’ into Fire Trucks. Below is a rare ad from 1957 for their fire trucks.
It looks like this was taped together and then the tape was removed.
” You are bidding on an original dealer showroom window banner/poster for Willys-Overland motor vehicles. It measures 14″ x 37-3/4″ and is a used, original. It comes in 2 pieces. Item is most likely from the early 1950’s. This would be a great addition to your Willys-Overland literature collection. Frame it or post it on the wall as is. I believe the edges originally had glue on them like an envelope. One can see where these were stuck onto a window and then removed. The one on the right has a 5″ seam tear.”
I’ve never seen this ad before now.” This is the actual ad and not a copy of one. It was published in 1947.
Also, there are a bunch of other ads currently on ebay
I thought this was an interesting ad. The two ‘selling’ points in this 1948 ad for the Willys Trucks are that they save on gas and oil & that they have a tight turning radius.
This auction includes a set of 10 ads for the Brazilian Jeep Pickup. Looks like they have been ripped from a magazine.
“They are original AD’s (not copy).
All different ADs (not repeated ADs).
ADs from 60’s / 70’s
Brazilian rare ADs.
The pages are in big size. Size of each AD: about 35 cm X 25 cm. Can be changed in poster.”

This ad for a Mustang Trailer was originally published by a company out of Bangor, Maine. Though attached to a jeep in the ad, the ad notes you can attach it to a truck, too.
