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 .

We arrived in Salt Lake on Thursday for dinner with my youngest son, who graduated this week. On Friday, Ann departs from Salt Lake City for Pasco with my computer. Meanwhile, I’ll be heading down to the San Rafael Swell to explore a tall slotted canyon for a couple days with my oldest son, Karson. On Sunday (which is birthday 51 for me), my son and I return to Salt Lake and I’ll spend the day with my other two kids. On Monday I’ll be heading for Winnemucca, then turn north for Silver City, Idaho for a little remote mountain exploring.
That’s a quick summary of this quick trip. Though I’ll be gone, I won’t forget you all. I have posts that will appear for the days I am away :-).
Great little article by Fairfax Downey, the writer of the book Jezebel. It’s a neat short book about some of his WWII adventures. This article was published in the August 05, 1944, issue of the Spokesman-Review.
This CJ-5 powered a winch to hoist materials for a building under construction in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. It was featured in the January 1858 issue of Willys News.
UPDATE: Still Available.

“Purchased this ‘lil Jeep several years ago and shipped it from Washington state to upstate NY. Have loved it ever since. Hate to sell this and my other Jeep listed, but am planning a move and can’t take all my toys with me. This Jeep has been built by/with some of the best names in Off-Road engineering, such as Advance Adapters, Novack Enterprises, Walck’s 4WD and Olympic 4WD (have all reciepts). Comes with a lot of spare parts, etc. if interested.
Interesting wiring strategy along the frame. I wonder how that will work out.
“–Runs Excellent!
-Eye Catching!
-Perfect For Jeeps Enthusiast/Collectors!!
-Clean Title
