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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $17,900.
(04/11/2015) Lots of work done, but not sure why the correct bumpers and other issues weren’t corrected during the rebuild.
“Off frame restoration. Engine bored 30 over, professional built 95% new 80% original. Body stamped Ford, new canvas seats and more. less then 50 miles 12 volt system”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(12/31/2014) It’s a project.
“I have an all original 1946 CJ2A Jeep Willys project for sale. I have everything to rebuild. I stripped everything down a few years ago to do a complete frame off restoration, but I haven’t had the time to finish this project. The frame, axles and L134 motor are all rebuilt. I also have the T90 3 speed transmission and transfer case, the original tub, fenders, hood, windshield and seats. I also have all the miscellaneous parts to go with, such as steering parts, electrical, and gauges. It still needs to be finished, and the tub needs some patch work. Asking $3000 for everything. Current Non-Op and pink in hand. No back fees. The picture of the jeep all together is what it looked like 3 years ago, and that is what it will look like again once rebuilt.”

Titas Taco House in Humble, Texas
Apparently, we needed some rest. We woke up early, checked emails, Facebook, etc, then fell back asleep for a nap. I blame the rain (seems as good excuse as any and it rained all day).
When we awoke, I was hungry. I found a place I wanted to try called Titas Taco House that had a five start YELP rating with 145 reviews. So off we went.
It was 11am when we arrived at the Humble, Texas, location to find a house converted into a small restaurant. We could see much of the dirt parking lot because it was already filled with cars. This bode well for our food adventure.
Inside the restaurant there was no list of prices and no menu. There was a series of poles and ropes, suggesting that long lines were not unusual.
Poles to help direct customer traffic.
However, we must have timed it right, because we walked right up to the order station. In front of us were about 20 different options for filling our tacos.
Lots of taco filling options
Again, no names on anything. We had to ask what was what. Ann decided on three corn tortillas filled with egg & sausage, potatoes and polish sausage, and poblanos and cheese. To make the tortillas, the server laid a thin layer of refried beans onto the tortilla and then added a small amount of filling.
Seth found this for sale on eBay. I tried contacting the Seattle Jeep Club, but no one has responded. It doesn’t have the ‘rump bumpers’ text, so I suspect it’s not an early version of the patch (see an example of David’s early Seattle Jeep Club patches here).
“Large 9″X6″, never used, Seattle Jeep Club embroidered patch for a jacket or shirt. This piece is in great shape. Nice and clean retaining the vibrant colors. Please ask questions before buying and thanks for looking!”
