eBay Search

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.

Jeeps Showcase

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.

Buying Tips

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 .

Hand Painted Models on eBay

June 27, 2014 • CATEGORIES: Features, Models This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Steve shared this eBay auction. There are several jeeps in the mix.

“This lot features a very large lot of military models. They have been in storage for quite some time so they are dirty and some are missing pieces. I have taken more than 12 pictures, so see below for all of them. Some other small pieces may fall off during shipping. The paint job on these pieces is EXCELLENT, whoever did the painting did 10 times better than I could. Some of the rubber treads have dry rotted.

We have other lots from the same owner available if you like the paint job (and some of the loose parts may be mixed into other lots) so bid on them all ;)”

I particular love this first photo from 1955 of the CJ-3A towing the boarders.

Chris’ VEEP Project

June 25, 2014 • CATEGORIES: Features, VEEP (VW Jeep), Scamp, Others This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: Chris has begun working on his veep project. You can follow his progress at this VW related site: http://fundubs.com/SimpleMachinesForum/index.php?topic=2848.0

Chris just picked up this VEEP project that’s missing a few items. He’s hoping to locate the 50 page installation manual that Hadley Engineering published. I’m not familiar with that particular manual, but if someone has one that can help out Chris, that would be great!
