UPDATE: Congrats to Alphamav for finding someone who could identify this location. It is Snake River Canyon near Twin Falls.
A few years ago Blaine downloaded this image from the internet. He’s always wondered where it was located.

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 .

Well Dave we both were thinking the same. The background sure looks like the Grand Canyon. I’ve some of the South Rim and the picture looks like what I remember. So that 2 votes for the Grand Canyon!
Tried Google Lens and Tin-eye no luck. Just googled old canyon gas station and this might be it at a different time: https://amp.azcentral.com/amp/93130610
After some sleuthing, I no longer believe this was taken at the Grand Canyon’s southern area. The walls appear built of horizontal slaps rather than the more rockery look shown in the pic above.
Maybe this was taken somewhere farther north, as I don’t see anything that looks like red rock in the distance.

Now that’s impressive Alphamav! I am a little ashamed that I have stood in the spot where the latter photo was taken after it had become a visitors center. I would never have guessed there was originally a gas station there.
I’ve added a pic to the post as well. Many thanks! Blaine can sleep more easily 🙂
Nice. Thank you.
You’re welcome!
