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 .
This year’s 2017 Tegernsee Convention in Bavaria was, once again, met with some heavy rain. Still, they participants soldiered on with their fun. A professional photographer named Jörg Friedrich took a variety of photos at the event, four of which are shown below. I think we can all relate to that first photo! You can see the rest here:

Joe and several others had a chance to show their vehicles at the August 2017 Dover AFB Air Show. He’s shared some pics below (thanks!):
I spent most of Tuesday on my sister’s roof, then we had a bday party for her in the evening. So, no updates this morning. They’ll resume Thursday morning.
Okay, so I said no updates, but you might enjoy this story by Brian Gabrial on Four Wheeler’s site about a 50th anniversary Jeepster Commando get-together this past Spring in Moab, Utah. Looks like it was a fun event!

Peter wanted to let you all know that he is holding a Vintage jeep Gathering on September, 17th, in Wyndham, Vermont.
The Vintage Jeep Gathering at Pete’s Camp is a very casual event. We start out with a pancake breakfast at 830am. Most of the morning is spent looking at the old Jeeps and talking with the owners. There are onsite trails, and a group ride leaving around 11am that explores the local back roads and trails. This is a free event,. Breakfast and lunch is available on site on a “donation” basis.

Bob Christy is hosting another Northeast Ohio Flatfender Willys Gathering September 10 from 11am to 4pm.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
Maybe someone could use this?
“For sale is an engine from a 1963 willys wagon. The engine is a Tornado 230 and runs. The engine runs well, it is just a little smoky. We assume it may need new rings. Send a message either by text or by email if interested. Looking to get $500 for it.”
Roger Martin reported on hi Southwest Ohio FC Gathering last weekend.
He wrote, “Over 30 FC’ers and friends spent part of their weekend at the Third Annual FC Gathering, July 14-16. The weather was hot but dry. There were 6 visiting FC trucks, one of which was a military M677 and one had a trencher. There was an early jeep pick-up (and even a 1936 MG Police Car…the only one in the US and one of two in existence. The owner was in Ohio for a show and stopped by to see the FC’s. He has an FC170 but did not have it with him.) There were 11 other FC’s on site for a total of 17 FC trucks in all. A few parts were traded.”
