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 .
Newspaper Ads in 1965 & 1966 championed the CJs and the V-6 power plant, calling it The Flying Jeep. This first article was published on August 21, 1965, in The Evening Independent.
The Toledo Blade published an article two days after the one above, noted that Kaiser Jeep faced a new competitor, the Ford Bronco:
This ad was published in a variety of newspapers. This particular one appeared October 12, 1966, in the Southeast Missourian.
I remember when the Jeep V/6 was big news back in 1965. I was 15 years old and very excited about it’s introduction. My dd had owned Willys jeeps in the past and I knew how under powered they were on the highways.
The first Jeep V/6 that I viewed was at Ziggy’s Phillip’s 66 Service Station, white with a black vinyl top. This Jeep went through many owners over the years, but I never lost sight of it, Bought it in 1978 for $550.00 with plow. I still have it today. With all the snow plowing I’ve done over the years, it’s earned it’s keep.
Great story 🙂
