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 .
Mark shared a photo of his CJ-3B spruced up for Christmas. Candy canes on the rims and red and green on the winch (that is one nicely rolled winch, too).
The birthday crew here at eWillys received a special request regarding Jesse Ybarra’s birthday today. Somebody asked if we celebrate birthdays. Our answer is sure, why not? So, happy birthday Jesse. And, we look forward to visiting 2016’s FC Roundup.
You can send him birthday wishes via the FC forum or on Facebook.

Buz spotted this wagon with some Christmas spirit in Blowing Rock, NC last week.
Glenn just bought this CJ-3B Fire Jeep. His 2A Fire Jeep has been sold. Derek published Fred Scott’s great write-up of it on the CJ-3B Page.
This article from the December 1955 Jeep News shares the growth of Bosemer Plumbing and its use of two different Jeep-A-Trenches. Note the serial number of the very early trencher: 11C-915. I never would have guess that was one of the first ones ever built!
Dan tells me this was taken at the Santa Monica Pier. Dated 1953.
