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 .
I believe this “I was the one that couldn’t even change a tire” postcard has the WAAC working on a jeep. It’s not one of the better jeep drawings we have seen.

It’s not a very large game, but still kind of a neat piece.

John shared these photos taken by his cousin Eddie.
“My cousin Eddie Bachmann got drafted in May 1944, ended up south of the battle of the Buldge around Hagenau, France, in january 1945 as a mortar man. The 42 Division went on to liberate Dachau in April 1945 and by mid summer were occupation troops in Zell am See, Austria. By that time he was a 6 stripe Sergeant and still only 18. Here are some photos of his buddies and Jeeps. He later became a Catholic priest.”

This 1956 testimonial by the Carolina Tool Company was published in the May 1956 issue of Willys News.
This issue has some great stuff. Note the last page with the modified truck. I wished the photos were clearly.
