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 .
Charles forwarded an interesting collection of photos with rare implements or oddities:
Doug scanned this interesting photo. He noted that the two-star general gets leather seat covers, while the one-star does not.

Marc was wondering if anyone knows what brand of tires are installed on this wagon.

Cam shared this photo of an Australian MB acting as an impromptu ambulance.

The same press photo with the same caption that is marked differently was sold by same seller in January of 2014 (the pic and caption from that 2014 ebay sale is at the bottom of this post).

Marc spotted this one.
“Original vintage negative by Chinese-American photographer Doris Nieh. This is a one of a kind vintage item from Doris Nieh’s estate. It was part of her personal archive. Doris Nieh was a photographer for Life Magazine and many other publications, she was also part of the social scene in Hollywood and New York in the 1950’s, 60’s and 70’s. She was the official photographer for the 1966 film “The Sand Pebbles” directed by Robert Wise, starring Steve McQueen, Candice Bergen, Richard Attenborough, Richard Crenna and Mako. This is an unpublished and unseen photograph from an academy award winning classic movie, a great find and a rare opportunity to own a unique piece of Hollywood history.”
Ron Day found this old photo he took showing a group of spectators and their vehicles at a race sponsored by the Jeep Jockeys Jeep Club sometime in the late 1970’s or early 80’s. This is west of Yakima, Washington near the small community of Tampico.
