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: Back on eBay.
This seems like an appropriate card, since we’ll be driving through Idaho today. The back of the postcard mentions Gowen Field.

The seller indicates this was a Park Avenue tape measure? It’s the first one I’ve ever listed here at eWillys. Must be pretty rare.

Education Elements is willing to pay $2500-$3000 for renting a small vintage jeep that is in good looking condition for an event happening in San Antonio October 25-28. Based on my conversation with him a CJ-2A/3A/3B/DJ/or CJ-5 would likely be the best fit.
Education Elements is an education consulting company located in CA that is participating at an event happening in San Antonio TX in October. The company is presenting at 5 sessions and hosting a booth and would like to decorate the booth with an old Jeep (as a symbol of the journey the road trip, the adventure..) The audience of the conference is only educators and district leaders, so no kids to play around 🙂
The car won’t be driven, it will be simply placed indoor at a booth, as decor element. It will be indoor, inside the convention center.
If you’d like to learn more, email Yosr Najjar at yosr@edelements.com.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
The jeep’s windshield shows belongs to Lynch’s Road Service.

The Gypsy Rose Lee Jeep is a stripped down version of the regular jeep for airborne troops (one of a variety developed). Made of “plastic plywood”, it was almost a 1,000lbs lighter than the standard 2,200lb jeep. You might also know the jeep as the MB-L. This article, of which the Gypsy Rose Lee was a part, was published in the December 1947 issue of Willys Overland Unity Magazine.
The 41st Annual Military Vehicle Preservation Association International Convention will be August 11-13, 2016 in Pleasanton, CA, USA at the Alameda County Fairgrounds.

I imagine the only thing that would have made this better for soldiers is if women had been serving the ice cream!
