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 .
Uhm.

“This is a 1947 Willies CJ Jeep. As the picture show, it is in very poor shape and is in pieces. As far as I can tell most of it is there except for seats. I have no idea as to worth.

(07/29/2016) This has full floating rear hubs and a PTO. It runs, but clearly needs work. I’ve been reading through a bunch of late 1960s Four Wheeler magazines and I’ve been surprised to see how popular the rear truck-like bumpers were on southwest 1/4 jeeps.

This photo from the November 21, 1957, issue of the Spokesman-Review shows Ben Carlin and Half Safe following his trip around the world.
Marty let me know about this unique way of carrying oil and grease.
This Spicer Ad appeared in the July-August 1944 issue of Army Ordnance. Looks like a Slat Grille is coming over the hill at the top of the ad.
