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 .
This picture was scanned a few months ago by the University of Texas at San Antonio. It shows a series of Dj-3As ready to deliver Sommers Drugs goods in the San Antonio area.

Maury spotted these engine brochures. I can’t tell if they are one page or multi-page.

Looks like the ones in front are GPWs.
“1942- U.S. Coast Guardsmen, equipped with armed jeeps to protect war supplies from enemy sabotage, are shown getting their orders at a East Coast port before they start their patrol.

The first jeep is marked “SC 156”, the middle jeep is marked as “SC 164” and the jeep on the right is marked as “SC 133″”

This photo must have been published in 1982, hence the late date?

The postwar Jeep, especially adaptable for peacetime pursuits, combines the four basic functions of tractor, light truck, mobile power unit and passenger conveyance. The Jeep, just unveiled to the public by Willy’s Overland”

Here’s a neat little video with a field-made bazooka.
According to the March 1956 Willys News, some Willys owners were so busy with their snow plows they paid for them very quickly.
