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 .
Roberto has created some CJ-3A T-shirts. I’m going to purchase one. If you are interested in getting one, then lets work out a way of splitting the shipping. Just add a comment if you are interested in getting one.

This Roberto Flores illustration was commissioned by Mike Hardesty, for http://www.jeepchasm.com/
See the entire process at Roberto’s website.
Roberto forwarded this to me the other day. My french is rusty, so feel free to translate.
Roberto has created a new t-shirt picturing a Willys MB. You can see all his T-shirts here:

Roberto forwarded these two illustrations. The process of illustrating the Commando is also shown. Thanks Roberto!
You can see the entire slideshow here
Roberto just completed this caricature of a M-38. You can see his progress from start-to-finish here:
I ran across the below Collage and thought it would make an interesting post to group some of the collages I’ve run across.
From Ensarf.com comes this Bob Facklam Print. It is signed and numbered. Price is $19.85:
Tim Dolan and I were selling these. I haven’t reordered any.
This is a neat illustration I saw at the WAAAM Museum by Yasuo Ohtsuka called “The Jeep . . . A Concise History”
Here are a couple from Roberto Flores:
We often get to see Roberto’s Illustrations, but rarely Roberto himself. It seems he likes to paint himself as much as he does his canvases :-). Visit Roberto Flores at his website to see more.
This is a pic of me posing with another canvas in process!
The “dibujo-m38-uruguay-END.jpg” is another commissioned order drawn for an Uruguayan customer, and is a present for another fellow jeeper.
Here are two others just for fun:
Roberto forwarded his latest illustration. He writes, “This was offered as a birthday´s present, for a friend of mine. He actually owns the WW2 Willys MB jeep which appears drawn with him. I found it casually some years ago at French-Basque country and he bought it. After some resto (mainly at paint or canvas), he decored it markings of famous WW2 2nd Armored Division “Leclerc”, a legendary unit of Free French army, which liberated Paris at August 1944 with the support of the US 4th Infantry Division. In fact, he´s dressed as an officer of this Free French unit. It is 16.4″ x 11.6″
He also showed how he created it: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v82/Roberto67/Division%20Leclerc%20Willys%20MB%20jeep%20caricature/?albumview=slideshow
Just a couple posts tonight due to a site issue I’m puzzling through. Don’t forget to check out the latest jeeps for sale on ebay here and check out the new Willys Toys eBay Page. Not only are the lists fun to browse (at least I enjoy them), but every time you click, you are supporting eWillys 🙂
Roberto pointed out that it was International Women’s Day and shared some old pictures of women and their jeeps, some you might have seen and others you might not have. The first one is a picture I found on Flickr.
