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 .
Mike shared this pic of a VW he loaded in the back of a wagon many years ago. I’m still hoping for an explanation :-). To paraphrase the USPS, if it fits it ships?
Back in 1969, the dune buggy craze was in full swing. At the time I was driving a FJ3A Fleetvan doing a early morning newspaper delivery route when I noticed a VW body on the front lawn of one of my customers. Just so happened that I needed some body parts for my 1962 Bug, so I asked about it and they were just too happy to get rid of it. Never one to pass up a good deal, talked to my buddy, Georgie the “K” and together we stuffed it in the back of my Willys wagon, cabled it to the front bumper of the wagon and kept a lookout for the cops on the way home. We got lucky with no incidents. A couple of months later, found another bug by the railroad tracks, draged that one home too. Took off the parts I needed and put the rest of bodies out by the curb for the city clean week. Those were the days when life was young and oh so mellow. What happened? today the dream police are on the beat.
Nice!
Awesome story. Thanks for sharing.
