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 .
Here is a three-page press release that discusses the Tactical Personnel-Cargo Carrier (TPCC).
Here’s more info on the TPCC: http://www.ewillys.com/2024/09/06/1959-xm443e1-tpcc-brochure/
The current price for these four model Tactical Personnel-Cargo Carriers os $5999 or best offer. As far as the seller knows, there are no other examples of these models. One is in pretty good shape. The other three are in disrepair.

“Ultra Rare only 4-of a kind known to exist and here they are. These are Kaiser/Jeep 16″ US XM 443E1 Platform Truck Promo-really more of a Prototype. Never put into production. The prototype is made with metal/resin/rubber by the Kindred Industrial Design Company. The one that is complete does have some issues 1) The rubber tires have flat spots from being sat for a long period, 2) The steering wheel is bent 3) The drives seat hinge has popped off is the best description. The hinge pops into place like a watch band does to the watch and should be an easy repair. The features of this prototype: The lever in the middle of the front seats raises and lowers the height of the vehicle and works perfectly. All of the seats flip over to be hidden. The vehicle comes with two tops. The vehicle pieces are all removable the steering wheel,windshield, top, bed rails. The other 3-vehicles are in various stages of disrepair. One is fairly close needs a steering wheel, 4-tires and a seat hinge. The final two are really only parts vehicles. Here is a rare chance to truly own a one of a kind piece ”
Page 2 of this June 1957 issue notes that some vehicles experience a front end shimmy (I expect no one is surprised by this news). The article provides some thoughts on how to deal with that.
Tom shared this 2A with a replacement body. It looks solid.

“Jeep is well maintained and road ready. Have papers showing motor rebuild. 12 volt, but, have the generator. Mostly original. Solid frame and tub. May trade for Jeep Wrangler 4 door.”

It appears to have a PTO winch. Seems like there is value here.

This includes an overdrive. It sounds like it runs and drives.

“Starts with starter fluid. Brakes are completely shot. Clean title. $3,500”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $29,750.
(06/24/2024) Given how these are priced as projects, this doesn’t seem like a crazy price to me.
