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 .
Sadly, this is the last issue from the batch of Jeep News issues purchased last month. I’ll watch for more to hit eBay …
The eight pages of the November 1962 issue of Jeep News directs most of its pages to the new jeep models, which isn’t too surprising. Apart from that, page six covers the 3rd Annual Jeepathon race at Las Cruces, New Mexico, while page seven highlights more support for the Hatari movie.
On page 5 they talk about Willys factory rebuilt engines being available. Have many of these been found? I searched on the CJ2a forum and only saw one with a label saying it was factory rebuilt in Canada. They also mentioned they pained these engines red.
Also on page five is a great local ad done by the Dallas Jeep dealer.
It features E.J. Holub, A star player for the AFL’s (which later merged with the NFL to become the united NFL monolith we know today) Dallas Texans. If you haven’t heard of the Texans, it’s probably because you are too young, in 1963 the team moved up north to Kansas City and became the Chiefs.
Holub was famous for being a starter on both the offensive and defensive lines…meaning he played ALL of the game.
He retired in 1970 and is in the Football Hall of Fame.
He passed away in 2019 at the age of 81.
Awesome. Thanks for posting these.
