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 .
Roger forwarded a link to photos from this year’s Jeep Cavalcade in Silang. It looks like attendance was good. see all the pics here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.10155758622041046&type=3 … fun, and useless, fact: the only VA healthcare facility outside the United States is in the Philippines (US Embassy in Manilla to be exact).
Mike’s 1950 CJ-V35/U was featured in a recent JP Magazine online article and will appear in print as well. He notes the article was very good overall, though there were a couple minor incorrect references.

CREDIT: JP Magazine & Jay Kopycinski. As you can see, MIke’s got a nice lineup of CJ-V35/Us.
The Dispatcher Magazine’s 2018/2019 issue has been mailed. Included in it is Jim Allen’s excellent article on the rare CJ-5 462 (4WD, V6, 2 Passengers), a jeep marketed as more trail-ready CJ-5. If you don’t already have a subscription, take a look at getting one: https://www.dispatchermagazine.com
Paul tells me that they have updated the East Coast Willys Association’s website. They also plan to update it on a regular basis.

Just in time for the big game comes this new Jeep Commercial. Thanks to several folks for sharing this.
This less than accurate restoration of an M-38 sold for $49,500 in 201. Then, just last month, it was auctioned for $67,500, though a portion (no note on how much) of the proceeds was supposed to go to a military charity (it remains unidentified).
Interestingly, Hagerty Insurance valued it at $10,500, which seems a pretty fair estimate.

Dan’s create a series of rub-on gauge labels for those folks rebuilding their wagon, truck, delivery sedan, and Jeepster gauges. They are $80 per set. They are designed and made in the USA.
You can PayPal him $80 at scramboleer@yahoo.com (free first class USPS shipping; add $4 if you would like tracking). He’ll follow up confirming a mailing address and which of the two styles you would like.
If you have questions, can email him at scramboleer@yahoo.com.
