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: Price bumped to $650.
(09/01/2011) I believe this jeep might have cushioned the fall of a UFO.

Updates Sat AM
Today’s journey took us in and out of the Black Hills and, as I write this, we are cruising towards Billings. The first stop today was the Starbucks in Rapid City, SD, where we managed to cause problems. Somehow, Ann and I got too busy talking and managed to drive right by the order box. When we got to the window and explained that we missed the box, the servers quickly began jumped into action. Mayhem and disaster followed as car after car backed up in the ordinarily slow-paced town, while the servers attempted to stick our order in between the finished orders of others. By the time we drove away and saw the line of cars behind us, we knew we would never be welcomed back. I’m sure the servers were muttering ‘damn tourists’ as we drove away ….
Our next stop was Mt. Rushmore. This was very cool to see in person, more majestic than pictures make it. I guess the Park Service has also embraced the majesty, by charging a kingly price for parking of $11.00. Using some stealth techniques, we snapped some pictures and left for our next destination, the Crazy Horse Memorial.
The Crazy Horse Memorial costs $10 per person to enter, but for the money there is plenty in the visitor’s center to see. After touring the building, I spotted a flat fender in a painting by Jake Eggars hanging on one of the walls. I thought that was a bit strange, the color and look of the jeep (the color and bumper both unusual) that I wondered if it was drawn from a real jeep. So, when I got back to my computer, I started doing some searches. I finally discovered the below pics of the jeep taken in April of this year. No place is too remote for me NOT to find a jeep 🙂
