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 .
Don shared these photos from this year’s Albuquerque balloon festival. There were at least three jeeps, including an M-170, M-38, and M-38A1.
Louie is hoping to find the builder of this wagon. Comment below if you think you know.
A reader shared this photo. It’s a reproduction photo, but still an interesting one to review because of the number of field modifications.
“This is a nice reproduction of an original World War Two photograph showing US Army nurses arriving to provide medical support for the liberation and evacuation of the Penig concentration camp (south of Leipzig) in 1945. The Penig camp primarily held women. Size is about 5″ x 5″.”
