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 .
I rarely run across this FC brochure for sale. This time I was able to snag it. It is Form No. M-5-57 ISB.
This is the front of the brochure:

Given oversize ad is being sold out of the UK, this ad was likely published in a magazine there. Unfortunately, the seller is charging $34 to ship this $3 ad to the states.

Jerry shared this CJ-5 Boat combo. It has what appears to be a Florida registration, though Jerry notes it should on the hull. Anyone know more about it?
Runs and drives, but could use a few things according to the ad.

“Pains me to put this up for sale but a business opportunity has come my way and I could use the cash right now . For sale is a nice 1957 fc150 narrow track with tow bed . Has great running 4cyl 4 spd 4×4 . Great driver has had a decent restoration. Could use a few small things but runs and drives well . I put on a new fuel tank, fuel pump , rebuilt the carb , new radiator, water pump and some other stuff I have a brand new full wiring harness for it I never installed . As well as some other parts for it . 4×4 works great the thing is a real head turner . When you take it to a car show you will be the only one there”

Given the winch, this might be worth a look. This has been parked since I graduated from high school, so you know that’s a LONG time.

“1948 Willy’s with small block from a 1955 corvette (265) Please message for full description and details- comes with tons of extra parts, extra transmission and much much more. too much to list and not enough space on this ad to list it all.”
UPDATE: I spotted rarely-seen 4WD Wagon brochure on eBay that has some of the same elements from the brochure at the bottom’s center section. Note the “Universal Jeep” shown has a Worman hardtop. There is no date or form number on the brochure:
=========================
Originally published Feb 2, 2021: This August 1949 Willys Wagon brochure was an early brochure dedicated to the newly introduced 4WD wagon. The brochure has a Form No. 4x4SW-C1-2CM-8-49.

Neither truck runs.

If you’re gonna show up with cash and a big trailer, not gonna bitch about rust or cracked seats and you’re gonna be an all around cool person, you can have the pair for 3,000.”
This looks solid, though it has some overspray on the gauges.

While looking for jeeps I stumbled upon this unusual van. Looks like it would make an unusual food truck or other unique vehicle. That’s one big winch!
“According to a museum I’m consulting with, there were less than 1300 of these made and less than 50 in existence. Entertaining offers but don’t bother in the comments, compose a decent message or call Carroll’s truck parts in Galion Ohio”
