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 .
Gotta keep the jeeps clean!

Here are two neat photos Charles sent yesterday.
Here’s a then and now photo. 
This photo was taken in Curacao Bay in 1954 of a jeep that was pulled out of the sand or dirt:
Marc found this interesting photo. The caption explains that a nurse is handing out a pill to help prevent colds. Anyone know what the pills might be?
The information reads: FATAL TO FLU — A pill a day keeps the flu away! That’s the theory behind a cold-prevention campaign now being carried on among workers at Willys-Overland Motors, where the use of special immunization tablets have reduce colds by 80 percent and checked absenteeism. Here, a plant nurse passes the tablets out among “Jeep” girls on the company’s assembly line.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
How about this cool photo of a Fire Brigade lighting unit from Hamilton, Bermuda?
“Up for Auction is one color slide of Hamilton Bermuda 1960s Jeep FC170 4WD Light unit Copyright retained byphotographer.”

This late 1940s(?) photo shows a Navy Shore-Patrol jeep leading a truck carrying a Seahawk through the streets of china. These planes are being shipped from Shanghai to Kiangwan Air Base.

Here’s a neat photo from the NPS archives which appears to show a GPW (based on the bumper) parked in front of a B-25H. This was possibly taken in the Aleutians somewhere.

Here’s a photo of Howard Erwin Rummel in front of a jeep from the same archives:
