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 .
This soldier has a jeep and a wife, but now finally has the toaster he’s always wanted. I guess life is complete?

“1944 Toastmaster Toasters Appliances Just Married Jeep Vintage Magazine Print Ad 5-1/2″ x 13″”
Don’t laugh….my Toastmaster from that era still works perfectly…….nary a rust hole to be found! I’m a bit more crusty tho’!
I honestly didn’t think they made toasters during the war. As Bingo testifies to the quality of them above, a lot of material went into them: Steel, copper, chromium, cloth, ASBESTOS (yea, it’s in the cord) bakolite (forerunner of plastic). All stuff that would be used in the war effort and prohibited for luxuries. A toaster would be the last item I think would be approved.
If it ever would come to that, some of the old 1700’s houses by the Philadelphia art museum have old fashioned toasters that toast toast by the fireplace.
I thought it initially was an ad for toastmasters club that promotes public speaking. Never heard of a toastmaster toaster.
Bob, They are still in business though I’m not sure which company now owns them. You can find them on Amazon, Walmart, etc. On ebay, I found this original model (above) – actually, hundreds of them – in various condition including a NOS one for over $200. When flipped over, you can follow the Canadian Pat dates which place the manufacture within a few years of the last date. they begin with 1944. But I’d still put up a good debate whether these were made during the war. I’m sure they Pat’d a lot of stuff during the war they could not bring to market, but industrialists were always looking beyond the war, just as they did with Jeep. The ad talks about looking forward to getting one. And the Army/Navy banner with the “E” in the middle represents an Excellence Award in the company’s production for the war effort. ie: Just like Rockola Jukebox made M1 Carbines. But I guarantee you they were not making jukeboxes. Makes you wonder what Toastmaster really made for the war effort.
