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 .
Here’s a second set of Lift-O-Matic Hydraulic Tailgate brochures.
ORIGINAL POST (02/23/2013): This was sold in 2013 on eBay.
This period after-market stuff is really cool. Yeah, you could throw a new “Tommy-Lift” on the back of a Willy’s Truck but this would be way better. There’s quite a following for restoring all kinds of old Willy’s vehicles but that number diminishes rapidly (I assume) when talking about restoring old after-market *add-ons* for Willy’s vehicles..
I know there was a book available at one time listing attachments for Willy’s but was there ever a poster produced? That’d be another good one for Dave to re-do if there was…
Never thought about a poster of attachments. That’s a cool idea.
Yes, there has been a book(s?) produced, but it was essentially a series of brochure copies bound in a book. There’s room for a better book with the inclusion of history related to the major companies involved. I suppose at this point, given all the hi-res materials I have, I could put together something pretty good.
That is cool. A compilation of attachments would be awesome. I like the engineering and functionality of these attachments. Can you imagine a barn full of these things with a Willys pickup, wagon and a CJ or two to attach them to and maintain your property.
Actually, I can. I have seen a few barns that have jeeps with multiple attachments. Yes, I was quite jealous! 🙂
