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 might have a Warn OD, too.

I like reading books about the history of odd subjects. Whether gum, beer , milk or salt, if it is a history about something food related, I want to read it. A few years ago I read a fun little book about the history of popcorn called Popped Culture: A Social History of Popcorn in America by Andrew Smith. I was surprised to learn how many different kinds of popcorn there are, having grown up on the basic non-branded yellow variety. So, when I spotted this article about popcorn trailers that were pulled by Willys Wagons, I thought it was interesting. Below you can see the trailers built by Clyde Gould, see one of two wagons that pulled them, and learn about his attempt to create a popcorn business. Unfortunately, the article doesn’t indicate how successful he was or what happened to the trailers.

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was listed at $7000
(06/29/2012) This looks good. I can’t tell if the passenger side is a little discolored or if it is just the light and a reflection.

“This is a real woody with the wood recently installed and done in several coats of finish on hemlock..any other so called “woodies” you see will be painted and look like crap..beautiful blue paint with newer back floor wood restored in bed. Interior upholstered and repainted… 6 cylinder motor is very strong and transmission is excellent as well as all window and door rubber and tires..This very sought after 1952 willys can be driven anywhere. Other rare features are the barn doors on the back and all glass is perfect..selling several cars from my estate so watch craigs list for others”

This looks like a good price based on the pics. And, if it runs, it’s a really good price.

The outside looks good, but the interior is rough. Looks like someone is a Chargers fan.
