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 .

In New Zealand the Progressive Socialists powers got so bad post war that they had labor police telling small single person businesses like garages when they could open, when they had to close, and how much they could “pay” themselves and the tough one for one man shows, they had the prove they were paying themselves enough. Barter was illegal. If we continue in the direction we are going you’ll see that here
Bill,
What do the CJ-3Bs pictured above in the Philippines have to do with New Zealand?
Usually I delete politics from posts, but since I have a particular interest in New Zealand, having spent a month there years ago, I did some research and could find no evidence that barter was ever made illegal. In fact, barter was written into the tax code and multiple references discuss how popular barter is in New Zealand, especially in rural areas.
Also, following WWII the National Party (conservative party) had control of the government for 20 of the 27 years. The Labour party (liberal party) was only in power 7 years. So, if you have a specific link to back your assertion, I’d be very interested in reading it.
Thanks,
– Dave
