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 .

| 1963 Coot 4×4 OBO Vancouver, WA |
| Probably not a 1963 but what do I know, from what I found 1967 was the bulk of the build out of the COOT and 1968, but I don’t know a ton past doing a large newspaper lift on them over the past few days, They are pretty neat rigs. Kinda a big rabbit hole for me but it was fun researching these and no one had them clipped so it should be some new to you stuff coming up.
Not sure what this one is with the side bars on the side, another of let me know what you think. Full spread to follow this post. Dave posted one back in 2020, much nicer looking, https://www.ewillys.com/?s=COOT |
| INFORMATION FROM SELLER: |

Here is a series of clippings on the COOT 4X4, its a really interesting vehicle, that was built in the 1960’s they made quite a few of these, they seem pretty capable for what they are, with a 12HP Air Cooled Engine, they had a super climbing ability at 75% grade, that had to seem pretty sketchy at the time. Not the best in the water but on a calm crossing they appear to be able to get the job done, but something with a little bit of wake and it would be pretty dangerous to cross something like that I would think.
Overall there was a single positing Dave did back in 2020 that I ran across, then there was one this weekend I found.
Due to the work this took, I wont have a ton of posts, these eat up the eWillys time I have set aside, so not a Jeep or a Willys, but I was fascinated by them, they seemed to be a neat part of the 4×4 story that could use a small lift to record some of the information.

Hough HA Pay Loader $1,800 Mercer, PA
#notawillys OK last one of the Not a Willys, but its amazing things that pop up, I feel this had to have a very specific use like some of the Willys implements. Should be a Waukesha FC engine. Small platform, they are pretty popular doing some quick search. Will stick to the Willys but if I had 100AC this would probably have a home to help move old iron around the yard. I do need a small forklift to get engines and parts to the second floor, this wont work for that.
Information from seller:
Hough HA pay loader. Has forks and the bucket. I put newer tires and new tubes on the front. Replaced the brake master cylinder. Replaced the gas valve. Runs well. Does have a power steering cylinder leak and possibly a hydraulic line leak.

1966 Jeep With Snow Plow Rig $3,500 North Lima, OH
Well this is very interesting to find yet another Mercedes Jeep combo rig that is just super unique.
What are we going to call these things? Kinda looks like a bit of a GAZ, but who knows what they were after. At the same time it looks like something you would draw as a kid with the oversize effects.
They are different but the same, they are very cool and I love the creativity and total package wrapped around these. Not sure of the Mercedes tie in on both of these, maybe Jack had 2 homes one in Ohio and one in FL.
