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 .
I didn’t get a whole lot done the last few days, as Dad is needing more assistance. No time to do updates for Thursday, but perhaps this 1 hour video from WheelsTV will fill the void. I’ve only seen the first 15 minutes, but it looks promising thus far.
I did spot at least one item that was incorrect. While discussing the first BRC at Holabird, between 15:59 and 16:20 pictures of a BRC-60 are mistakenly shown.
Steve let me know about Metal Earth’s metal jeep DIY kits. I knew about the B-2 model (Ann has one), but didn’t know about the jeep.
Midwest Jeep Willys republished this promotional video titled: Workhorses of Industry. Thanks to Blaine for spotting it.
Looks in good shape.

Former Air Force jeep.
“24v everything is functioning and All original – still has the original paint (blue was for the Air Force; this Jeep was on an air craft carrier when in the service) new tires tubes and rims and battteries installed by les Schwab, brakes and engine tune up has been done too- fun to drive!!! Has 4low with lockers, tow bar and is wired for flat towing; comes with many extra parts: Bikini top, charging cable for supplying 24v to ???? Many extra parts original- this has been in the family and well cared for for a LONG time and it’s condition shows – always kept covered (very little rust) even the engine paint is original – black out running lights all work so enemy aircraft can’t target you! Haha
Clean and current pink slip in hand – no past reg or anything dumb- even the original turn signals still work!
I’ve seen these go for BIG money on the auction blocks so I’m testing this out – make me a actual offer and I’ll consider it – cash only – no trades – no checks – you pick it up yourself and hand me cash 🙂
I’m happy to show it to real honest interested buyers – tirekickers and low ballers are wasting everyone’s time (YOURS)”

“Pickup bed trailer made from the Frame, Axle and Bed from a Forward Control (cabover) Jeep pickup. The forward control jeeps are becoming kind of rare and this bed may be just the ticket for the completion of a nice restore project. Or use it as built as a trailer. Pretty complete including original jeep tailgate with a few dings and very minimal rust. E-mail if interested or if you need more information.”
