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: This photo was on eBay.
Here’s an interesting photo. Must have been a pedal jeep race of some type.

It’s our annual ‘Kiss a Veteran Day’ here at eWillys. Normally, I kiss my veteran at least once a day (and twice on Sundays), but there is no kissing today as we are apart for a few days while I begin work on Biscuit here in Seattle. So, in honor of my veteran, here’s a kiss we shared in Times Square back in 2011. Not bad for a self portrait!
For those of you who’ve read my book “Finding Virginia” you know that we weren’t sure a couple years ago whether dad would make it to his 80th birthday or not. Well, I’m happy to report that last night he officially turned 80. We celebrated with family and some thai food. He says his next goal is to reach the age of 90. Knowing him, he just might make it.
Pete from the Old Willys Forum forwarded these two videos he’s just posted from last summer’s 2013 Moab Willys Rally. The first video shows what it looks like when driving through Arches National Park. The second has some jeeping footage.
Here’s a good looking FC-170 Glenn found.
Glenn writes, “Was out roaming in NH yesterday looking at a DJ3A. Happened by Ryan’s Garage in Center Ossipee, NH and spotted this freshly done FC170, a real sharp job. Around the parking lot was several other Willys pickups along with another FC donor. Sorry I didn’t get a front shot, but what you don’t see just to the left of the pix is a vey large, loud, chained dog. Nobody came out to tell us differently, so we stayed right in the car. Maybe some of the locals can tell us more. This is SNOW country and these FC models didn’t last long up here.”
Buz forwarded this article from “Just a Car Guy” about this rare Willys interlagos Berlinetta. I have to say I’m diggin’ this car.

A couple folks forwarded this article from Hemmings about the Willys MB that was published a couple days ago.
