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 $2750.
Runs and drives.

“1946 Jeep, a little rusty and very ugly, but still a running, driving, functioning ol’ Jeep. It belongs to my boss. He is not computer literate at all and I barely am. I can text pictues to you, but I can’t e-mail them. He wants me to “weed out the idiots”.”

<– Day 8 – Mar. 27th: Joe’s Jeeps | OVERVIEW | Day 10 – Mar. 29th: Red Lobster or Bust — Day 2 of the FC Roundup –>
Wayne’s FC appears to be bowing as if to say “Welcome to the Round Up!”
Prior to the beginning of this trip, I planned to have a new battery in my MacBook Pro laptop (currently three years old) and a backup charger (mine has lots of black tape holding it together). But, my planning went completely wrong. First, I ordered a battery off of ebay, only to receive a broken one. So, I sent that back and ordered a second one, which turned out to be an imitation, unlike what was advertised. Since my current battery still lasts about 2 hours, I figured I’d survive the trip with it.
For a back up charger, I planned to bring Ann’s, along with her old Mac Book Pro laptop. But then, her mom bought her a new Mac Book Pro laptop for her birthday. What I didn’t realize is that Apple changed the charger slightly for the new retina displays, meaning her charger doesn’t work with mine.
Despite these obstacles, I figured I could make the charger survive. Well, I couldn’t. Today, of all days, with us running late to get to the FC Roundup, the charger failed me. So, off to the Apple store I went to buy a new charger, which made us later. You gotta love technology. It never fails to go bad at the worst times . . .
Eventually, we made it to the FC Roundup and had a wonderful afternoon relaxing and talking with folks. There’s a bigger turnout than we’d seen from the last two years were were here. Even more people are arriving tomorrow, so it should be great fun. Here’s some photos from today:
This is what it is all about. Hanging out and chatting.
Note the cut down MB grille on the front of the FJ
This newcomer is a beautiful build.
FCs show up in all types of condition.
“Worn Rusty Hubbs” has a removable lower FC Fan shroud to make it easier to work on the engine. He thought folks might like to see some pics. Thanks for taking the time to shoot the photos Rusty!
Here the shroud is attached.
This shows one set of tabs used to attach the shroud.
This shows another set.
This shows the shroud removed from the jeep.
This old photo is interesting. I think that’s a newer Hotchkiss in the front with an older jeep (Hotchkiss?) in the rear.
UPDATE: Was on eBay. **SOLD**
Marc found this Paul Revere based ad with a jeep.
I’m surprised there’s no date stamp along with the description.
“This Fine Photo features American Jeeps as they pass over a US PONTOON BRIDGE in the New Guinea Jungle during WORLD WAR II, the troops are loaded with military supplies as they advance toward their ALLIES to aid against the fight with the JAPANESE.”
