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 .
The May 1955 issue of Willys News featured this article about a Colorado Jeep trip.
UPDATE: JW correctly pointed out there are TWO Prince of Wales Islands in the world (perhaps more??). The jeep shown below is located on the Australian Prince of Wales Island, which sites just south of Papau New Guinea (I erroneous thought it was in laska)
This old right-hand appearing jeep was found on the Prince of Wales Island in 2013 and published at Going Strait. Not much salvageable here.

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.
