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 .
Over the past couple of weeks falling eBay prices has allowed me to get some really neat content. So, the month of August should be a good one for new features.
Here’s the first one. I did not know that Warn produced a portable Warn winch. Anyone ever run across one of these? It appeared as part of a 1970 Warn Advertisement.
For M-151 folks this should be an interesting document.

On the side of the CJ-3A shown in this Mott mower brochure was printed “Akron” and “Canton”. I can’t make out the third word.
Mostly marketed to tractors, as you can see on the brochure, the Danseur blade could also be used behind a jeep.
I’ve not run across this Dispatcher brochure. It includes a nice side shot of the convertible top.

This promotional jeep is similar in size to a brass one discussed here. It could have been related to the Hongkong gold jeep display shared here: http://cj3b.info/Siblings/SurreyGold.html
I have a habit of infecting family members with the Willys sickness. This causes them to be always on the lookout for jeeps. A few months ago a distant German relative contacted me. Since that time we’ve been sharing bits of family into. I don’t remember mentioning eWillys to him at all, but somehow he knew, because he recently sent this photo while visiting Sulzhayn, Germany. 🙂
I thought this 1964 photo of what appears to be a stock CJ-3A somewhere in southeast Asia with full-floating rear hubs was surprising to see. Is this something that Willys Export offered?
