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.
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 .

So after seeing many SAS pics and coming to the conclusion that the grills were chopped for some distinction, does anyone know what the story is behind it?
whats up with the jeep in the background…..?
My understanding is that it was originally for better airflow in the desert, but that doesn’t explain the northern Europe chopping. I suspect it might have become a unique symbol for the SAS?
I guess the driver in the jeep in the background of the first pic is showing off or crashing? lol
I read in one of my Jeep books that windshields, grille slats and various other body parts were removed to reduce the weight of the Jeep so that more ammo, fuel, rations etc. could be loaded for combat runs.
