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 .
But drove Willa Dean out to the Picnic, its an Hour and Half ride about 52 miles. Was a beautiful AM and the trip was nice, 2024 I took her out there as well, but refined the route this time and was a much better ride overall.
The show was really amazing being able to meet some great people. Especially Andy Testo who has always helped out and provided tons of eWillys content over the years and Bob W who is a great contributor of Willys.
The list of people is long, Seth and his family put alot f time and effort into the show and it really shows as the event is run smoothly, parking is well coordinated and thoughtful, the venue is amazing and has unbelievable facilities from food, to rest rooms, and a Train Ride! If you needed to add one Willys thing to your list I feel this should be in the top 5.
I was not able to stay the entire time had a graduation party to attend, but I was able to meet many people and spend time with some good friends amd now new friends for a few hours making this another priceless event.
Thank to the “Windyhill” folks for everything you do and another great show!
Pictures are too large to upload right now! Will work to reduce those, my computer crashed on Saturday so working from the phone for a few days.

Kaiser Willys Auto Supply, a family owned business providing quality and reasonably priced vintageWillys Jeep Parts, was founded by Ron Meditz in 1995 and handed down from father to son, Mike Meditz,in the early 2000s. In the beginning, Ron’s interest in the hobby began with a 1954 Kaiser Darrin (pictured below), and very quickly expanded into Kaiser Frasier, Willys Jeep, Truck and Station Wagon. For as long as he can remember, owner Mike Meditz can recall many childhood experiences surrounding his father’s interest in the Kaiser / Willys line of automobiles.
