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 is an unusual jeep. It appears to be made of metal. Given the PRODUCTION ENGINEERING label across the windshield, it’s possible this was created by the Production Engineering Corp, out of Minneapolis, Minnesota, which specializes in sheet metal projects and other custom works. The company was launched in 1957, so it is possible.

“Probably used in a factory”
As a child I remember plans to make one of these little kid Jeeps powered by a lawnmower engine, published in Popular Mechanics or one of those publications. We had plenty of old lawnmowers, but my dad, working 3 jobs never had enough time.
Mike,
I’ve documented a few of those plans, but most of the time they are made of wood. What’s interesting about this one is that to me it appears to be all metal.

Neet-o! The Kohler is air cooled but there appears to be a small 4 blade fan on the flywheel and a radiator or oil cooler of some sort up front. What gives?
maybe it has some kind of hydrostatic drive system. there is some kind of shift lever on the steering column.
Mike P. That’s possible. Note also the oil filter assembly and lines on the passenger side at the firewall and a line is routed to an transmission cooler behind the grill.. The other possibility is that there was an apparatus on it at one time requiring hydraulics and required cooling.
