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 jeep isn’t for sale, but appeared in my Craigslist search (It’s the drift bike in front of it that is actually for sale). I thought the jeep was interesting enough to share.
KEYWORDS: Custom flattie, trike, Camas, jeep-rod.
I think the owner of the jeep is Rod, Brian’s brother that has the beautiful CJ3B, that lives here in the Vancouver, Washington area. I have seen it before and it is gorgeous.
Actually I think it’s Rod’s wife’s jeep 🙂
The drift bike must go with the jeep. This is a pair for sure.
Do drift bikes have brakes? Or is that what shoe soles are for?
Agree these two belong together: great looking pair… looks kinda like a Veep body, except for the oversized pipes coming out the front.
Marty,
Yep, I thought you might recognize it as the ad was from your area. At first I thought it was some kind of VEEP, but the hood scoop and exhaust pipes suggested otherwise. Lots of great detail work. I think the hood has been shaved, maybe even the cowl? Those brothers do some nice work.

See, now if you’re going to build a jeep hot rod, that’s the way to have it look. Not those things where the front wheels are in front of the grill and such. That’s a great looking hot rod.
There used to be a kit to put side pipes on Beetles. (Anyone have a JC Whitney catalog from the mid 70’s laying around?)
This is the look I want for my ’55 jeep. Can anyone forward me a contact who I can ask a few questions?
That was Tom Solomon’s jeep years ago, I think he built it before his purple extended cab Willys P/U. I remember admiring it every year at the Moonshiners Swapmeet when I was a kid until Rod bought it. I’m building a 2wd ’47 2A right now and have been searching for pictures of this jeep to help with ideas for mine.
Any luck finding info for this jeep?
Bill,
If you email Dave with your contact info I believe he can get Rod or Brian to call you if you would like to talk to them.
Bill. Yep, will be happy to help .. email me at d@ewillys.com and I’ll forward your info to Brian.

I know this is a super old post but I’m wondering if anyone knows if this one is still around? I’ve been around the Hotrod scene in north Oregon and SW Washington for several years now but I haven’t seen this at any of the shows I’ve attended.
Thanks!
