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 .

Seems like we’re seeing more stories like this lately. I hope this makes people reconsider where they park their jeeps. Just because you don’t have a fully restored military jeep doesn’t mean the scrap metal thieves or the car strippers won’t be interested in your less-than perfect jeep, or any other classic car you might have.
This stolen jeep in this story was parked in an unwatched field. Nearer to the house or somewhere in sight no doubt would have been better.
One of the guys on the CJ-2a forum showed how he chained his steering wheel to the seat frame so it couldn’t be steered. If you were leaving it in a parking lot or street you could always chain an axel to a lamp post or something else immobile too.
I admit these precautions aren’t perfect but they might be enough to make a thief reconsider & move on.
Am I being paranoid? I hope not. I just really hate seeing thieves steal something that’s the result of anyone’s hard work, their investment, their pleasure away from them.
Maybe others have better ideas than this.
Saw it chained to a submarine yesterday
Maybe there should be a new category for jeep security ideas?
