About eWillys
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.
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 .

After a day down at the Seattle Waterfront, I’m turning in early. However, Roberto forwarded some videos that ought to keep everyone busy until tomorrow’s updates. So, check out the next two posts.
Mitch dropped by my parents’ house tonight to have me sign his book and to chit chat. He told me he isn’t a big reader, but he sat down and read the book in only three sittings. He loved it, which was great to hear, and has a waiting line of people who want to read it. I mentioned that I was thinking about getting a booth at the Moonshiner’s Swapmeet in March (March 11 in Puyallup). He suggested that someone might have an indoor booth they’d like to split or share with me. I figured that was a good idea, so if anyone has a booth at that main hall and wants to split or have me stay there and sign/sell books, let me know. For those that don’t know, the book has some PNW history, racing history, a few jeep trips and more in the book (though it is much more than just about jeeps).
In the meantime, here is Ann and I enjoying the beautiful scenery today (57 degrees and sunny!)
Here is a three part video about the history of the jeep forwarded by Roberto. It was produced by Canada’s History Television and is part of their Turning Points of History series. Though not perfect in its accuracy, such as the clip of Marilyn Monroe in a M-38A1 during a discussion about movie stars and jeeps at the start of WWII, there is some footage I hadn’t seen. This lasts 45 minutes.
(12/28/2012) This is unusual. The seller notes this was issued to the military at some point.
