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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.

Just this update for Tuesday. With our ‘blistering’ 95 degree day, I thought it would be a good idea to give Biscuit a bath on Monday. Amazingly, the kids thought so too. Kasia and Colter even helped!
Here’s Colter using the compressor’s air nozzle to blow out the pine needles inside of it. Pine needles get into everything around here!
Colter went from working to supervising Kasia. She listened to her music (note the earbud) and ignored him.
Once we got done washing the jeep, we decided to do a little jeeping.
This is the back gate from the road to the pasture.
Kasia took over the camera while I drove Colter, my niece Holly and my nephew Tommy all over.
There’s only about an inch on either side of the jeep as I navigate between the stump in the foreground and the fence in the background. If you don’t like scratches, this isn’t the place for your jeep!
You can see we hug the fence. This is why I’m doing the driving! Not that I haven’t hit the fence once or twice . . .
This is another stump that has to be rounded. The rear passenger wheel must be placed against it and then when the gas pedal is pressed just right, the tire bumps the stump and gets kicked out to the right. At least, that’s the theory.
Charles forwarded some additional pictures from Belgium. Enjoy!
This aide kit came with a surplus WW2 jeep Charles’ brother bought in 1946. However, it doesn’t appear to be a WW2 jeep kit. Anyone have additional insights (I don’t know anything about these).
Charles notes: “The kit is metal, 8″X5″X2.5″ olive drab with a Red Cross symbol on the top. I could find no numbers of any kind. On the directions for use inside is the name of the company that distributed it. (First Aid Supply Co., 32 West 22nd St, New York 10, NY)”

“I’m looking to sell my blue, 1948 Willy’s Jeep. Unfortunately I don’t know much about it as it was my dad’s project. I do know that it has the original engine in it, but does not run – I believe it was a fuel pump issue. The body is on it is good, one cracked plastic fender, but mostly straight otherwise. The leather on the seats is decent, but does show that it has been sitting for a while. It does have a tow bar on the front of it. Could be a really great vehicle”

Here’s a dual PTO CJ-2A in good shape. I can’t imagine this will last long.
“This antique Jeep is really unusual. It has two PTOs and a handle under the driver’s side of the car that engages either PTO. I don’t know how to operate it, but it is all there. It runs perfectly and looks good. The roughest part is rust around the windshield frame. In the photo of the engine, there is an upper cylinder lubricating system that can be seen in the upper right hand corner of the photo. It also has a roll bar and seat belts. Included in the price is an aluminum top with aluminum doors.”
