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 .
No toy inside, the but the outside has some great art.

Archive.org has an interesting collection of Business Screen Magazines from 1944-1947. Reading through them was kind of interesting. I found a few jeeps, too.

I thought this org chart was interesting as well.
Robin purchased this early Ford Pygmy photo off of eBay. The photo is dated 12/05/40.
The Union online newspaper published a father & son story by Ron Cherry about their restoration of a 1956 wagon. The end of the story was a bit unexpected.

Doug spotted this photo. It’s too bad there isn’t more jeep.

Joel Dunn wanted to share photos of Carson City Board of Tourism’s newly redone FJ-3.
He writes, “I wanted to share some pics of Jays 1961 FJ3 that Carson City purchased as a project to celebrate Nevada 10th birthday on October 31, 2014. Willy participated in the Las Vegas parade on Friday the 31st and then at the Nevada Day parade in Carson City on Saturday November 1st. Willy was the hit of both parades and will now start appearing at tourism, travel and hospitality shows a cross the Western United States. Soon to come is a killer sound system and LED monitors.”

This “Orders are to Seize All Reds” postcard is funny.
