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 .
Several readers shared links to different Pygmy Articles published over the past couple of days. I guess it was a popular subject!

Nice looking jeep. I wish the pics were better.
“Complete restoration of a period correct build. This Jeep was originally built in the 70’s and then rebuilt from ground up and since finished it has less than 50 miles on it. Everything is new or rebuilt. Parade or show worthy. Stroked 327 Chevy with Muncie Trans. Engine built for torque and power but mild enough for daily driver. Body is perfect. Hardly a flaw from top to bottom. Two fuel tanks. I already have too many Jeeps and other projects to enjoy this like it should be. I know the history of this California original Jeep since the 60’s”
