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 .
I don’t spend much time on Pinterest, but Marc shared a couple links to Pinterest sites with a variety of photos. Most we’ve seen, but there are a few interesting ones there, too.

Roberto posted this interesting photo on Facebook that he found on ImageShack. Someone suggested this was a test photo from Aberdeen, but I haven’t seen any verification for it. The image looks like it might be from a video. Anyone recognize it?

UPDATE: This is back on eBay
“Belonging to my grandfather who was a draftsman and worked for Willys. Packed away for many years. These are “C” sized mylar pencil blueprints. This is original and from 1953 for a copper screen and guard for windows on a Willys. Will be shipped rolled.
Any questions, please feel free to ask.
I DO NOT ship outside the USA (Canada is NOT the USA).”

Here are plans for attaching a forklift to a M-38A1.

I spotted this ten page Stewart Warner 978 heater Instruction manual on eBay. Then I found what I believe is the actual heater itself. Seems like a neat combo.
Here’s the heater: It is a Southwind Stewart Warner 978 M heater. This looks to be for a 6V vehicle though.

Not many updates tonight. I sprained my finger playing basketball today, so typing is a bit slow.
This weekend Mitch Carter and the Wandering Willys Jeep Club drove the Naches Pass. Normally, Mitch would take his M-38 over the pass, but this time Mitch drove his recently purchased (out of a field) rare Perkin’s powered 1966 CJ-6 for its inaugural jeep trip.
You can see from these photos posted in August that his jeep wan’t quite ready to go jeeping when he bought it. However, over the past couple of months his got the jeep back into running shape. Then he added some new wheels and tires. Great work Mitch! The jeep looks good and it appears you had a fun run.
Craig found this upsized Mule (XM443E1) published in an issue of Jeep News.
My son Karson will be in Virginia another week before ending heading back to Sacramento where he completes his FEMA/Americorps experience. During his travels this past year he’s introduced a variety of people to eWillys (well done!). This weekend he was hiking with friends in the Blueridge Mountains where he spotted this M-38A1 on a trailer all by itself.
How about this cool photo.
“This 8″ x 10″ B&W Glossy Photo of the Edgcomb Steel Jeep Truck was taken in Philadelphia in 1962. The photo remains in good condition, exhibiting only light signs of vintage wear (faint crease marks, etc.).”
