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 .
Robin found a great short clip of the Willys Wagon that appears in the movie “It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World“. I remember watching this movie as a kid, because it was one of my favorites. It’s a bunch of silliness.
Poor jeep.
“These 2 1950’s snapshot photos were taken by a soldier in the 28th Infantry Division 899th AAA Bn. in Germany. The photos show a wrecked jeep and some soldiers. Painted on the front bumper of the jeep is “28 899 AA”. The photos measure approximately 3 1/8 x 4 1/4 inches.”

Neil has some concern about the rust on his frame and wondered if anyone knew what the correct thickness of a M-38 frame should be. I did some searches, but I couldn’t find anything.
This jeep looks more like a mobile home than a fighting vehicle. The soldiers are located on Tarakan Island.

Along the Miami River, among the island freighters, machine shops and boat yards is this bizarre sight at the Byrd Commercial Divers’ yard. Is it art, trash or a statement? While a jeep is not visible, we can only assume there is a stout CJ-2A holding up the turquoise Cadillac. Maybe an someone knows what this display is about? And the model & year of each car?

Here’s an unusual postcard. The sender had plenty to say, leaving very little white space.

Here’s a great early original farm jeep press photo. Interesting enough, that’s not a CJ-2A, but an MB in the photo.
