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 .
This is a project.

While driving to Vancouver on Monday, Ann and I decided to visit the five year old Western Antique Aeroplane and Automobile Museum (WAAAM). So, about noon we pulled off I-84 and drove into downtown Hood River expecting to locate the museum quickly. However, it turns out the museum is located a few miles away from town near the airport. As soon as we realized we didn’t know where we were going, we cranked up the GPS and that guided us up the hill and over a dale or two. We even passed a FC-170 off to our right. Finally, we arrived at Air Museum Road.
Since it was Monday at noon, there wasn’t a flood of visitors, which worked out great for us because the staff could take the time to explain and answer all of our questions. In fact, everyone was noticeably friendly and knowledgeable.
The first thing we learned is that WAAAM has one of the largest collection of working antique planes and vehicles in the country. All the different planes, tractors, jeeps, automobiles, trucks, motorcycles are housed in two giant hangars with multiple exits. In fact, some of the planes and vehicles are privately owned, but stored free of charge at the museum. Owners can come in most any time and take their property out to fly or drive them.
Every month the museum holds a “Second Saturday” event. That’s when volunteers arrive to give rides and show off the vehicles. In May of 2012, a special Military Day will be held on the Second Saturday. That date is May 12th and I’ve been invited to talk a little about jeeps and sign books (and maybe ride in a jeep or two???). It should be fun!
Here’s an introduction to the museum:

While I had fun looking at all the cars and planes, it was the jeeps I was there to see. We saw the following jeeps:
