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 .
UPDATE II: There are more photos of the DJ-3A “mobile bar” in the February 1962 Jeep News.
This 1966 brochure for the Las Brisas resort included some pics of Surreys.
Here’s a DJ-5 with hubcaps.
We’ve seen this DJ-3A “mobile bar” featured in a photo from another angle.
This is the booklet’s cover. 
I’m going to guess that Pvt. Green is not inspecting the sign for any fine print ….

Blaine spotted this. We tried to find an online source for more of these, but didn’t have any luck.
“I have a brand new windshield sunshield cover that unfolds to cover the inside of the window. About 26 inches tall. It has 2 suction cups with it.”

I’m having some trouble identifying this PTO winch. Does anyone else recognize it? There appears to be an “N” stamped on the end (not easily seen on the bottom pic).
This jeep-engine-powered screw-tractor called the Wormobile was spotted by Aaron. There’s a third photo of this here.
“one of a kind screw type vehicle built in 54 has willys jeep motor and transmission a complete overhaul 2 years ago

The “it can do what others can’t” message of this testimonial pretty much defines the jeep’s niche at this point.
I thought I had a good chance to win this one on eBay, but it slipped away at the last second buy a second bidder. Anyway, it’s a souvenir program of the first national press event for the CJ-2A. Here are some photos.
This was taken a month into the war.

Seth shared this Wheatfield High School newsletter called the Jeep Journal and named for the high school’s mascot. The school appears to have closed. According to this source, the high school became known as the “Jeeps” in the 1930s, preceding the introduction of the Jeep.
“For sale is a vintage booklet, Jeep Journal, from Wheatland High School in Wheatland, Indiana. This is the April 7, 1955 “Junior Issue.” It is filled with 10 mimeographed pages of school news. This publication measures 8 1/2 by 11 inches and is in very good condition. It is extremely hard to find”

Not the most enthusiastic testimonial we’ve read for the new jeep!
