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 .
Glenn alerted me to this. If you are a fan of M*A*S*H, then you might be interested in hiking to the mountain set of the TV Series. The are is located in Malibu Creek State Park just north of Malibu, California. There’s a few old vehicles still there, including an earlyish CJ-2A.

Signs would be good to use to tell what was there. Also, it would be cool if they restored the Truck and the Jeep, put them in a building with a sign that says. ” Two MASH Vehicles Come See” or something. 🙂
Never cared for that show. Maybe it was the depressing theme music it had that was promptly played right after the 10PM news the signaled it was time to go to bed. The syndication era when they played it after the nightly news on KSL in Utah was the only time I remember seeing that show on.
That’s where I’m a bit older … I remember watching the episodes as they aired in their original time slot. I especially remember watching the final episode — that was a big deal.
I remember seeing the entire set about a year or so after the end of the show, it was set up in a big exhibit at the Smithsonian in DC. They even had small pieces of the plywood walls cut up in little squares that you could buy as a souvenir. The Jeeps and the Ambulance were there also. I would assume that the ones left behind at the park were some they blew up or otherwise destroyed in scenes. It would sure be nice to be able to Jeep to the site rather than walk.
