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: **Sold** Were on eBay.
A couple nice family shots in what looks like a Fire Brigade Jeep, but it is painted differently.
“NICE LOT OF 2 ORIGINAL, AND LARGE, VINTAGE WORLD WAR 2 ERA, (1942-45 ERA), PHOTOGRAPHS SHOWING 2 LITTLE GIRLS AND THEIR BRAND NEW TOY ARMY JEEP! LOOKS LIKE THEIR FATHER OR UNCLE IS IN THE SERVICE & IS SHOWN IN UNIFORM (SEE PHOTOS)!

Here’s a nice shot.
“This is a highly desirable and very scarce original snapshot photo of a handsome fellow in a jeep, reverse says “note athlete’s foot” — as shown, terrific period details, roughly five by four inches, mild wear. This originally came from a northern VT estate, and has been in my own collection for many years.”

Dave presented this great brass buckle to me at this years FC Roundup. I safely packed it away so that I wouldn’t lose it on the way home, but I packed it so good that I couldn’t find it. I finally found it looking for something else …. whew!
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $250.
Here’s an unusual sign.
“No scratches, and working, Im selling this man-cave item for $250 OBO. It’s definatifely worth it, I have checked it out on EBAY and sells for more than that. Contact me for any info by email or by text or call, im better with my cell phone tho.”
Neat photo.

This poor jeep saw some action. It can be found on TWDCs’ History Page. TWA assisted the Kingdom of Saudi with management assistant for the newly formed Saudi Arabian Airlines.
“Collectible 1950’s Jeep/Willys 4 Paper Banner Double Sided Signs 17″ x 12″. I found these signs picking a long closed dealership. Great collectibles for the Jeep/Willys fans. The signs are in very good condition. There is some slight soiling, sun-fading, and very slight tears. The one sign (refer to photos) has the hanging slot torn away. No damage to inhibit displaying in a man cave, business, or garage. They will be shipped flat.”

Thanks to Steve Elkins for filing this great report from the 2013 Willys America Open House last Saturday! You can see more pics at the oldwillysforum also.
The annual Willys America Open House was Saturday, July 13, 2013. Over one hundred Willys vehicles converged on the old lumber town of Cazadero nestled among the towering redwoods of the Russian River region of Sonoma County, California.
Once again, Paul Barry opened up his amazing restoration facility to Willys owners everywhere for his annual event. Willys enthusiast from all over the region, and some as far as the Eastern United States, came to the event. Well known names in the Willys World such as Harry & Jo Sheets from Indiana, and Bill Norris, who publishes the best calendars in the world, were there to enjoy a wide variety of Willys on display and to meet other enthusiasts.
Here are some folks caravanning north to the event. Just to their south the Golden Gate Bridge looms amongst a marine push.
Willys America houses the largest variety of unique Willys vehicles anywhere. There were personnel carriers, Mavericks, Sedan Deliveries, Jeepsters, Forward Control trucks, Jeeps built in Japan and the Philippines, military vehicles, ambulances, fire trucks, RR vehicles, just to name a few. There was even a 1943 Allis-Chalmers Snow Tractor powered by Willys (L4-134.)
Thermos is saluting the men who make jeeps, but what about the women?
