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 .

Our church is having a golden harvest dinner Sunday after service. Wonder what the golden harvest prises were?
Dave- do you have any idea what the willys salesman received when they got a golden harvest prize? For that matter do you have any idea what the willys salesman got durring other times of the year for sale awards?
According to the January 1955 issue, salesman Lee Hayek, Jr., won the contest. He was awarded a $1000 check and a Willys Deluxe Automobile. I don’t know if there were any other prizes.
I have documentation that other sales contests awarded vacations, a week’s vacation pay, other Willys vehicles (a Darin was one prize), gold watches, and more.
A 1956 contest awarded a “luxurious” European vacation to London, Paris and Rome.
