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 .

Anyone know much about this type of electric Ramsey winch? Joe’s got one he wants to sell and can’t find any information on it and neither could I.
Heading to New York City? Well make sure to stop at the southwestern corner of Central Park and visit Don Cafe’s espresso jeep. This is exactly what I asked (ordered?) Tommy and Holly Lansidel, my niece and nephew, who recently visited New York City and took these photos.
Fabio Antonio Arbelaez, one of the people behind Don Cafe and its coffee products, is from Colombia. His great grandfather was the first Arriero (horseman) to cross Andes Mountains. He made the journey with his 60 mules. When he was on the top of the Andes he was amazed by the beautiful green of the valley of Quindio (It looks just like Kona Hawaii). He decided to settle there. He established 22 coffee, Cocoa, sugar cane, plantain and yuca Farms of which Fabio’s family still owns eleven. It has been a family business for over 150 years.
For now, you can find Don Cafe’s jeep at the location below. However, don’t be surprised to see more jeeps serving coffee in New York City and other American cities. You can also keep track of the company on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DonCafeProducts/
Yesterday, while driving through East Wenatchee, Washington, I spotted this unusual looking flattie. I only had my cell phone, so the pic isn’t the best (and had to brave traffic just to get this photo — only got honked at once) 🙂 Based on what I could see from a slightly different angle (which I couldn’t photograph), I think it is a jeep body on a truck chassis:
This snow plow jeep is still parked in the same spot we saw it in 2013:
A couple days ago I saw this nice CJ-3B in Pasco.
Seth posted this cool photo to the Willys Jeep CJ-2A Facebook group. He found it on the Cape Hatteras Anglers Club’s Facebook page.
Jim writes, “Took my 48 (with 3a windshield) out for a drive in Lovell ME and on the way back to the lake saw Steven King and his Red Telsa come to the only stop sign in town. Immediately shielded my eyes so he wouldn’t cast a spell on Willys. Why, read on ….
King is redoing a house for his daughter who has ms. He is putting a writing studio upstairs in a barn and she will be downstairs so he can be close by. They have multiple homes nearby. It is the same area where he a local driver accidentaly hit him as he was walking down the side of the road. And yes, one year later, the local died when his single wide burned down! Hence one must always avert your eyes when King and his red Telsa is on the road!!”
Jim didn’t get a photo of King’s Tesla, but a photo of his CJ-2A will do just fine!
