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 has a Dualmatic hub on one side and a Cutlas PowerLock hub on the other.

“1947 Willys CJ2A for sale. Jeep is in good condition. It does run but hasn’t been started in a couple of years. This Jeep is stock. It was restored about 50 years ago and does need some work. It was converted to a 12-volt electrical system some time ago. It also has a booster on the brake system. The hubs have been changed to automatic locking. This Jeep was my Dad’s. When he passed away, he gave it to my sister. It is a lot of fun to drive. It needs someone who is able to work on it. This Jeep is located in Ukiah. There is also a utility trailer that is capable of hauling the Jeep available for an extra $500.00”
UPDATE: Was on eBay. Now priced at $8000.
(07/20/2022) This is listed on eBay with a starting bid of $5000. It’s got an M-38 style grille.

“Willy’s Jeep- super clean!
Very clean newly professionally repainted super clean engine.
Not a speck of rust!
The first year the Willy was made available to civilians with 1946. Comes with lots of extras !
Was father’s passion!
Engine runs great. Seats were just professionally repainted so I have not been reattached to the frame.
All hardware included.
Brand new wiring harness needs to be installed very simple. Brand new windshield.
Not one scratch on the entire body of this beautiful collectors item! Have spent thousands more than we are asking.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $16,500.
(07/12/2022) This flattie has a variety of updates, along with a Bobcat hood.
“Buick 231 V6, t-150 3 speed trans. Call or text for more info”

“1947 willy jeep runs and drives 2500 or best offer I have the title to it to text me for more details”
This appears to have a replacement body and grille (or M-38 grille) at the very least. Note the lack of a parking brake spot on the dash; instead, the parking break handle sits below the dash.

“Original engine. New fuel pump, plugs, wires,cap and rotor. New disk brakes on front, new drum brakes on rear. Runs and drives great. 4wheel drive works great. No rust, body in great shape. Soft top. Serious inquiries only.”

“Very solid and straight 1949 Willy’s, All original, set for 30 plus years in dry storage. It hadn’t been run for awhile when I bought it a few years back, I cleaned and sealed the fuel tank, new fuel lines and filter, rebuilt the carb and replaced the wires, points, cap etc. and it fired right up and purrs like a kitten. It is rust free and in great shape. I rebuilt the seats, I have some new parts for it, bumper etc.”
No pics and no description.

“Old willys army jeep. Good shape for its age but need some tinkering.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(04/02/2022) This has a replacement body, which partly explains its solid looking floors.

Blaine spotted the 2A for sale. In the first pic note the jeep sun the background to the right of the pic. It is a late 1950s 2WD Economy Delivery van. Very rare.

“1946 Willys Jeep $5,500 OBO – V6 with newly rebuilt Transmission. Upgraded Breaks. In running condition”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
(05/02/2022) Listed as a 1944, this appears to be a 2A based solely on the transmission cross member sitting in the back of the jeep. This also has an extended rear, which isn’t seen often on a 2A. It might make an interesting project.
“Old Willy’s jeep. Good restoration project. Selling for a friend”
This may be a ’46 based on the grille.

“The St Patrick’s day parade is this weekend and this little soldier is ready for green craftys. Let’s go join the parade show our patriotism, get housed at Lodos and fight some Californians! What better way to ensure our American pride than tootin down 16th street mall half in the bag throwin green beads at children and possibly doin a lil plowin while we’re at it? This war machine ain’t perfect so don’t start belly aching to me, take it up with Uncle Sam who originally commissioned it. It fires up on revelry command and never leaves a man behind. Come join me plowing tomorrow morning and I’ll share some general Patton Java with you and let you shovel my walks at 5 a.m.. afterward we can put it on the auto lift, you can tell me how great it looks underneath and about how you lost your virginity under one just like it.”
It runs and drives. Seems worth a look.
