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 .
Has some bumper mods and the floor’s cargo floor has been repaired.

Given the hard-to-find Beck/Kelly half cab, I’d say this is worth a look.
“1940”Willy’s Jeep with plow and extra parts. Asking $1050.00″
UPDATE: Still Available.
(04/01/2020) Mechanically, this looks like it’s been thoughtfully restored. I’m just not sure how the restorer figured out what the “correct WWII Olive Drab” would be?

Not sure if the tubs are $300/per tub?
https://albuquerque.craigslist.org/pts/d/isleta-cj2a-jeep-bodys/7105036010.html
“I have 3 jeep tubs for CJ2A jeeps, some fenders, hoods, windshields, and many other parts, vintage jeeps only”
Thanks to Prasantha for sharing this auction. Overall seems like a nice rig. There are a few non-stock items, but they are relatively trivial in my opinion.
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1946-willys-cj2a-8/
“This 1946 Willys CJ-2A was reportedly used as an airport tug prior to its purchase by the seller five years ago. It was later refurbished and is finished in Harvest Tan over a tan canvas interior. Power is from a 134ci inline-four paired with a three-speed manual gearbox and a dual-range transfer case. Equipment includes painted steel wheels, steel bumpers, a trailer hitch, a driver-side mirror and windshield wiper, and a rear bench seat. This CJ-2A is now offered with refurbishment documents and a clean Texas title in the seller’s name….”
This might have an MB or GPW body.

“1946 Willys Jeep. 350 V8. Not currently running. Needs petals/linkage. Stock rear end.

It’s a project.
https://orangecounty.craigslist.org/pts/d/fullerton-1946-jeep-willys-cj2a/7114432027.html
“1946 Jeep Willy’s cj2a does not run, I do not have the title however the vin is visible on the firewall so registering shouldn’t be a problem. It has rust and dents but it has potential. Later model F head engine. I have 5 stock wheels I will include with full asking price”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
Obviously, the windshield is from an M-38 or a reproduction.
“These are leftover parts from a restoration project I completed. The body is a CJ2A (the tail gate deleted). It’s in overall fair condition, and is still sound with mostly surface rust. However some “Bondo body work” was done to it and it’s quite thick in some places.
The hood is still in great shape with only a light layer of Bondo on top. It does have the traditional Willys script on it, and will fit most flat fender era Jeeps.
The fenders are CJ2A style, but should fit most flat fender era jeeps. They are also in good condition with little to no Bondo.
The windshield is in the best condition, with no Bondo, and the, presumably, original glass. It’s most likely an M38 windshield, but would fit any of the flat fender jeeps.
I was going to build another jeep, but as it turns out I’ve gotten too busy and it’s time to clean up the drive way. Sold as a bundle deal.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** “Was No Price.
Just the one pic provided. Not sure how much value is here.
“WILLYS JEEP For Project”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $14,950
(10/22/2019) I’d like to see some more pics of this one. Has a fiberglass body.
“This vehicle is for show. Has won many awards. Chevy 383 stroker engine. Original transmission and rear end. Custom exhaust. New fiberglass body. Yellow paint. Additional custom features. Has been in the family since original purchase in 1946. No second party representatives”
Has some VEC indents and a EasyLok hubs.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/891101707992952/
“Has a 289 ford in it runs and drives 4 wheel drive works with high and low shifter”
This has an M-38 body. No description provided. The “WILLYS” branding on the hood is incorrectly placed. I’d have to guess that the hood is also from an M-38.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/656629315152043/
It runs.

UPDATE: Still Available.
(10/03/2019) The body has at least one patch along the driver’s side, so I’m not sure how this is a “new original steel tub”?
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/203662420938308/

“1948 Willys, CJ-2A. Rebuilt 4 cylinder “Go-Devil” Motor, transmission, transfer case, front and rear axles. New exhaust system including manifold , driveshaft, clutch, brake shoes, brake drums, brake lines, master cylinder, all pedals, water pump, all gauges, distributor, coil ,front axel shafts, wiring, front and rear leaf springs, leaf spring shackles, shocks and much, much more.
This Willys uses the original 6 volt system via a 6 volt alternator, working 6 volt generator comes with purchase. Also using a Saturn overdrive but have the original PTO that will also come with. Many spare parts will also come along with this Willys.
You are basically buying a new 1948 CJ-2A that runs and drives just like it should.
Have receipts for everything.
Down side…does need a new paint job and the reason I am selling is that the leg room is to short for me. If you are over 5 ft 10 in you should strongly look into a
CJ-3A as its driver seat is back 2 more inches.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4250.
(03/13/2020) Runs. Has some Cutlas Powerlock hubs.
“1946 Willy’s CJ2A. Mostly original. Runs and drives! New fuel pump and brake master cylinder. The old flat head 4 still fires right up. She’s pretty rough and has some rust but really not too bad for being 74 years old! I intended to do a full restoration but life has gotten in the way and I have to let her go.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(01/21/2020) Could use more pics.

“1947 Willys Jeep With a Buick V6 It’s a lot of fun just need the space Freed up”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
The engine is from Kaiser-Frazer, so isn’t original to the jeep. I believe the disassembled photos are the latest ones.
“”46″ Jeep CJ2A , 1st year available to for civilian purchase. All original parts to re- assemble. Was going to do a frame off restoration but am going a different way. Comes with a top, doors, and plow. Has the original supersonic 4 cylinder motor. Currently sitting in my garage out of the weather. Would be a good restoration or an opportunity to add an SMC motor to make an off road vehicle. Do not have a title so I would supply a bill of sale to acquire one.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.
Not sure what all work this needs to run and drive.
“1946 Willys. Project vehicle ready for you to finish. Has been sitting for 6 six years.”
