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 .

Looks like a Tuxedo Park
The early CJ5 website (http://www.earlycj5.com/history/tuxedo-park-mark-iii-and-mark-iv-guide/) has a nice post on the Tuxedo Park packages. That rear chrome bumper and the cream/white grille both appear to be signs that suggest tuxedo park. Anything else you see that I’m missing?
Note that the Tuxedo Park packages weren’t available until 1961, so either the year is incorrect, the bumper (and other items?) were added later, OR this is an amalgamation of 2 or more jeeps.
Good catch!
Now I have a question …. did the chrome bumpers only come on the Mark IV? After re-reading through the ‘tuxedo park guide’, that is the impression I get.
