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 .
Page two of this issue highlights what service departments should do when replacing engines in WWII jeeps.
It’s supposed to have the original body, but there’s no original hole for the ignition.

This includes four combat rims. It’s a little different from the standard jeep trailer.
“Military army trailer from the late 40’s. Originally used to haul the generator for a mobile radar system. Trailer is made by Trailmobile-Lapeer. Has 4 Willys Jeep WW2 combat rims. (Red wheel/tire does not go with trailer, I have the 4th combat rim, tire is shot) Has jacks on all 4 corners to level on uneven ground. Trailer is designed to connect in series with other trailers like a train. Would also make a good anti- aircraft battery base! Looking to move this quickly… $950 cash”
It’s a project.
