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 .
According to Glenn, “My buddy in Sylvania, Ohio says this car didn’t survive long as it was hit at a railroad crossing. This is the only one they did, announced in a few press outlets, and the project promptly (quietly) abandoned.”

If I remember right wasn’t that model named the “666?” Doomed from the onset. Fortunately Brooks Stevens happened along and the Willys line took a more favorable direction!
Seems like I’ve read somewhere that the design came from what was left of Graham Paige. I have seen an Austrailian press release also. Project was pretty hush hush here. My inside The Overland sources seem to know very little. We may learn a tid bit or two here. Walter Miller has made a career of finding goodies like this. If in the Syracuse area, be sure to visit his museum.
in a book i own (JEEP The Unstoppable Legend) there’s a small article on this vehicle. same picture as well. this was actually a design of Brooks Stevens and Barney Roos. it was supposed to get a six cylinder and independent suspension all around. lots of innovations in this car to provide comfort and headroom. the vehicle was never produced for a variety of reasons, from steel shortage, to being way too busy building cj’s, wagons and trucks, and so on .whatever the reason the car would soon be forgotten and soon after the Aero-Willys was released. and by the way, there was no mention of this being hit by a train. from what i could read it was a Willys 6/66 if anyone else has this book the info is on pg 63 and on pg 66
