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 .

It’s a project.
https://providence.craigslist.org/cto/d/1943-willies-army-jeep/6500695946.html
“I have a 43 willy’s army jeep, started as a project, rebuilt the engine, never ran it but no reason why it shouldn’t. I have two transmissions. Replaced all the brakes and had all the drums cut. Painted the frame with POR15 (I hate rust) and then she sat for years, body has rust and needs some work but frame is beautiful.
Bottom line I don’t have to sell it so low ball offers won’t be accepted. But make me an offer. Might consider trading for a 14 or 16 ft boat with engine and trailer.”

The “Easy-Way” post-hole digger was manufactured by Standar Steel Works out of Kansas City, MO. I thought i’d done a post on the early post-hole diggers that were available, but I hadn’t. So, expect that one soon.
