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 .
Marine Sgt. Joseph “Joe” Dinnigan was photographed by Life Photographer David Douglas Duncan in this photo of the Sgt sitting on an MB. The image was shared by his son; what an amazing photograph of his father.

I was recently visiting with a Korean veteran, discussing my M38A1, and his stories of how cold it got in Korea were central to his noncombat experience there – it sounds pretty brutal, and this photograph bears that out.
Wow! That is a picture from Chosin reservoir. Brutal battle in US Marine history. You can see it in his eyes!
Any idea of his first name?
Hi Nick,
Unfortunately, I couldn’t locate that info. Getty Images has a large collection of LIFE images. Maybe the image is there with the full name? https://www.gettyimages.com/collections/lifepicture
– Dave
I looked and didn’t get any results :/
His first name is Joseph. “Joe”
Thanks Mark!
How did you find out his name? I couldn’t find it anywhere
Sgt. Dinnigan is my brother in laws deceased father. He shared the photo and history with me.
Any other info about the photo or his service that you can or are willing to share? I love uncovering history like that. Makes a photo more than just a photo of something.
FROZIN CHOZIN – you can tell it was cold there , 3 jeep cans in front of the radiator to stop air flow , tire chains on a jeep , m1 carbine ? – my father was in the navy during the korean war , he never talked about it , i think he was offshore on an aircraft carrier ..
