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 these photos.
I happened across this rare set of tracked jeeps made by O’Laughlin (a person or a company?), or it could just be one jeep with successive modifications. I only uncovered a few photos photos and very little information.How experiments on this related to the M-28/M-29 amphibious Weasel are not clear to me, but they appear to have been parallel projects given the Weasel research was begun in 1942.
I found this photo of the tracked jeep at a Cargo & Personnel Carrier site:

I found a thread on an argentine model site where someone constructed a look-a-like model.

This could potentially be the same jeep as above, only it’s rear area has been altered. I can’t quite read the numbers on the hood in the top pic to know for sure. 
Finally, there’s a page about a tracked jeep at 42FordGPW, but the page never refers to either vehicle as a Modified vehicle. Perhaps someone can add to this info?
Paul spotted this photo at the “Just a Car Guy” website. Given at least some of these are Slat Grilles, I’d guess this was taken late 1941 or early 1942?
Charles shared these photos showing the liberation of Holland by our Canadian Brethren. Looks like they may have originated at the Nederlands Fotomuseum. Here’s a link to that website.
The hardtop on this looks unusually tall, but the solider looks pretty tall as well. This includes a good shot of the front mud flaps.

The date on this photo is January 1950. If so, these guys are part of the fight against China rather than Japan. Therefore this is more likely a WWII photo.
“KACHIN TRIBESMEN OF NORTH BURMA AID ALLIES IN WAR AGAINST THE JAPANESE”
Jeep drivers pause at an overnight shelter during a long run through a Japanese-held jungle. Kachin forces use airplanes, jeeps, mules and elephant to negotiate the remote jungle trails in their relentless stalking of the Japanese.”

This is a rare mod that you don’t see often. The rear wheel wheel has been covered.
