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 .

Look at the driver in the front jeep, it looks like he’s got one hand on the steering wheel and he’s trying to light his cigarette with a lighter in his other hand.
That reminds me of a story my father told me about one of his coworkers that happened years ago. One day while he was driving to work in his full-size pickup truck he was stopped at a light, when all of a sudden he felt a big bump that seemed to be coming from the back of his truck. He looked in his rear view mirror and didn’t see anything. He got out, went back and found a small sports car wedged under the bed of his truck. No skid marks, the guy never even touched his brakes, and he was severly injured. Know what he was trying to do while he was driving? Light his cigarette.
I know my dad was trying to make a point, but if he were alive today I think he would be shocked to see all these people texting and calling on the cells while they were driving.
Everybody – please be careful when you’re out there driving your jeep.
Texting, talking, smoking, drinking, eating, applying makeup, adjusting the ipod, looking up directions, trying to make the GPS work …. there are so many things to do while driving that it is a wonder we get anywhere safely!
