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 .
Being the local celebs that we are (yeah, right), we dropped by a local wine bar (Gordons) where the owners are going to let me talk about and sell my books. While there, they were shooting a commercial. I guess they were desperate for ‘talent’ because we appear at the end of their commercial. I like to think we scored the anchor spot!
The only online place we’ve found the commercial online was on Facebook. Below is a snapshot from when it played on TV.
The cover of this box shows a Ford GP, so it might be a Ford GP model.
“Mego model kit, builds wooden US Army Jeep M-10, 1944, box is 8-1/2 in. x 6-1/8 in.”

The January 1953 issue of “Modern Man” magazine featured a story about the jeep’s history. However, given the M-38A1 prominently displayed at the top of the page, I can’t help but wonder if this was part public relations and part history piece.
