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 .

I love these old pics. Thanks for sharing, Cam. Detail is amazing: in the third pic (2 GIs on muddy road), you can see the imprint of the springs showing through the canvas of the seat backs: wow.
I also thought the first 4 photos would be good for a “make up the caption” contest.
For Joe in Mesa.
We followed the big truck off the main highway from the bar and he ran into a tree. We all got stuck.
We will finish fighting the war when they finish the bridge.
Hey soldier, your place or mine.
Sorry about the fourth one. I am not racist, and cannot be funny without sounding that way, about leaving the neighborhood.
We are way ahead in the war, let’s just do it this way.
Every time I ride on the hood I get carsick.
We’re gonna steal some sweet corn and put it on the Barbie tonight.
Thanks to Joe in Mesa. Now I have to apologize. I have no disrespect for people from Australia, or anyone else for that matter. In fact I have a great deal of respect for the engineering and mechanical feats Australia and New Zealand accomplish from such a seemingly small area and population.
Just for instance The Americas’ Cup and Burt Monroe. No ill feelings intended towards anyone, just humor.
John
OMG… LMAO. Well done, John.
The only one I had thought of was the second pic:
“So you’re really gonna jump this river, private Knievel?”
And that 5th one isn’t a jeep pic… it’s a “need a jeep” pic.
