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 .
Is Freddy Holmqvist someone that was famous? Does the Swedish caption provide any clues?

I can just hear the crowds bursting out in song … can you?…. like in the movie Pepe (1960) or The Music Man (1962)!
Barney … I’m afraid I don’t know either movie. But, it looks like quite the celebration!
Dave, this photo does bring a smile to me. I see the photo being presented to a class to write an essay on. And it reminds me of one of my favorite Jeep memories: Stationed with the Navy in Stockton CA in 72-76, several WAVES wanted me to drive them to Oakland Alameda NAS to visit their friends. They all piled into my brand new 73 CJ5 with the top down. I remember more there being more girls than seats.
Barney, no wonder you enjoyed the Navy so much! 🙂
