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 .

The November 1953 issue of Cars Magazine contained this two page article. Note the jeep on the lower right of page 2. See the rear extension box. It’s got a matching cover that connects with soft top.
This issue of Cars Magazine had a few more jeep references. Below are short descriptions of an electric seep, a photo of right hand CJ-3Bs used by the Post Office, and a look at the rolligon.

This 1964 article shares the unusual way a jeep caused a power outage. The story was reported in newspapers across the country.
This is a rare first edition The Military Jeep Model MB GPW by Lawrence Nabholtz. According to what I’ve read copies of this book go for high prices.
“The Military Jeep Model MB GPW 1st edition by Lawrence Nabholtz, NOS condition. If you are into WWII Jeeps or just Military Vehicles this is the book to have. It’s highly sought after in the Military Vehicle collecting world. It covers many aspects of the Jeep that you will not find any where else.
It’s been long out of print, and the author has passed on. This is the Original, 1st edition, which was limited to 1000 Numbered copies, this one being #0943. It’s 8.5×11 and 63 pages.
I bought several of these for family and friends when first published. I recently found this extra one in a sealed plastic storage tote, where it’s been since new.”

Here’s an unusual item.
“Somewhat odd collectable- 4.5″ Clear Green Glass Plate with a Jeep CJ5 on it. Since the Jeep was manufactured in Toledo, Ohio it may be a tie in to that city’s dominance in Glass production? In very good condition, one rough spot on rim.”
