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 .
Seller will take offers.

Can anyone tell me why the driver’s side front tire and the passenger’s side rear tire appear to be of a different tread design than the driver’s side rear? Was this something commonly done?
Along the lines of what Dave said, consider also that in wartime, many vehicles came with tires with similar wheels and tires, or same vehicles but from different “blocks” of contracts with slight differences in equipment (including tires). It made sense to cannibalize a dead vehicle for anything of use to keep others operational. Obviously they would likely have plenty of busted up vehicles to choose from.
