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 .
This 8×10 photograph shows an early CJ-2. Note the “JEEP” on the hood in place of the later “WILLYS”. Also note the position of the spare tire.

Popular Science published an article on September 25th about this 1962 Wagon, updated on the inside, but stock on the outside. Below is a picture of the same wagon with Gerald and his kids in front of it at this year’s Bantam Festival.
Yesterday Steve shared a photo of this ceramic wagon model of his ’57 Sedan Delivery Wagon that he created when he was 18. It is 12″ in length.
He wrote, “I made the wagon the first year at Jr. College. There was a ’57 Chevy I though was pretty cool made in a previous class. So, I did a “self portrait”, sort of….. My Willys Wagon was my “wheels” until I got a real job, as opposed to summer jobs. The engine when bad, so I parked it and bought my first FC-170 in ’82. I drove that through my University days. Everyone called it the “garbage truck”. I was in the sailing club and very few had a vehicle that could tow the boats on weekend saildays. So, the garbage truck was one of the tow vehicles on the weekends, and on the two campouts each year. I’m sure everyone has fond memories of that ugly thing.
Now the ’57 wagon has it’s first paint job, and waiting to be assembled. The body is on the frame, but it not bolted down yet. The engine and transmission will be next….some day. I have too many projects in line at the moment.”
UPDATE: Was on eBay. **SOLD**. It is similar to the Trailblazer.
Where was this when I was building models? This has desert dog-like tires, a stainless look, and some turbine rims!
“GRRRUMBLER 4×4 Jeep Off Road Custom MPC 1:25 OPENED Vtg Model Kit 70’s”

More on Structo Ride on Jeeps from the CJ-3B Page.
“Vintage Structo ride on Fire Jeep. Ride on that steers in VG condition , very little surface rust spots and marks. Rare only seen one other one on here. Says Fire Dept #26 on hood and pumper on seat. Shows tools on both fenders. Really nice pressed steel toy. It is missing the cover piece on hood as shown in pictures. Measures 26″ long by 10″ wide.”
This ad is supposed to be from 1947, probably published in Quebec (as the seller is from Quebec).

The cover on this mailer (of a pig behind a tiny tree) is unusual. I am guessing this strategy didn’t work as I haven’t ran into pigs in other willys/jeep brochures.
“Here we have an auction for a nice original factory dealership sales brochure. This is an original print (not a reproduction or later made piece) This is an original piece as handed out at the dealerships when the models were new. It is in great condition with no rips, stains, tears or loose pages.”
