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 .

Could be a good price.
“Selling my Warn 8274. I bought it last year and had plans of restoring it and putting it on my fj40. I have since sold the fj and no longer need it. When I bought it, the guy operated it for me on his Jeep and it worked properly. Dont have any other history to give. I ordered a decal replacement from Warn that I am including as well as the roller guide. Has good cable and hooks/hardware in the plastic bag. Should be ready for use or great base for a restoration project.”
When loose deep sand was encountered, the ‘Jeep’ had to pull both the yacht and the sedan. [ed note … this caption was included in the original article]
Shepard went on to write an article for Wide World Magazine titled First to Sail the Sahara. An 1800 mile journey with his wife and family in a sand yacht over the Desert in 1956 (it’s also been republished as a book, but this may be a modern item). The second, Sahara Adventure, is an actual book and probably a more complete account of the trip. I’ve just bought it, so I’ll report on it once I read it.
In many places the ‘Jeep’ was the center of attraction.
A typical camp scene—time for oiling the rifle and catching up on correspondence.
Guy shared this Jeep Timeline video that marks the 75th anniversary of Willys/Jeep vehicles (of course if one counts the Bantam, it’s year 76, but I won’t go there … )
And Don shared this related video:
