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 looks like a great price.

It could use some restoration.

Glenn Woudenberg wrote me a note saying this pedal jeep was spotted at a Bazaar in Mumbai, India. That seems to me to be a good excuse to go to India. It kind of has a ‘high hood’ feel to it. The wheels look similar to a Tri-ang.
If I weren’t saving for our March California trip, I’d bid on this pair.
“For your consideration is an Empire & Carolina Enterprises plastic jeep and trailer (1976). The jeep measures 16 inches long. These are in overall good condition with wear, marks, scratches, and bends. The trailer has a broken hook, but these will display very nicely.”

I don’t know how rare this toy is, but it looks like an interesting piece. I googled to find another example, but couldn’t locate one. This toy is located in Mexico, so know that before purchasing it. Given the Mad Max label on the box, I’m wondering if this is more like mid 1980s?
