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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
Has some floor rot and the drive train is frozen.

Not sure how much value is here. If the chassis is well done, a person could widen the body of this and maybe make something a little different. I think this might ride hard, given the suspension is built to handle a lot more weight than a jeep?

This looks nice. It’s listed in the East CT Craigslist and has CT plates, but the associated map places it in Independence, KS. I’m not sure why ….

https://cnj.craigslist.org/cto/d/bangor-1946-willys-jeep-4×4-parts-or/6794558941.html
“what you see is what I have, its 4 wd, 3 speed standard on the column, two shifters on the floor, drivetrain is complete, we almost had it started, lost spark, so engine should be good, this Willys has no papers, and it is stored in Pennsylvania, Bangor Pa. North of Easton not too far from NJ, rolls, and steers for loading.”
This is supposed to be a CJ-2A chassis, but I don’t see the older transfercase support on the outside of the frame (maybe it is a late ’48?). This may also have a Porter and Reed hardtop.

“48 Jeep. Have title but is not in my name can have it transferred to me first if you prefer. Partial restoration has begun. Motor has been rebuilt and frame has been painted. Probably needs some bushings etc replaced but overall in great shape. Body is rough and someone has started cutting panels but didn’t finish. All cut outs are there along with new fabricated panels. Some complete some not. Most parts are there. Even have a hard top roof for it and doors but the glass is broken. Still Restin but not Rusting anymore. Parts are Not for sale. ALL OR NOTHING”
Seller is selling only certain items. It looks like the body has had some work around where the drain holes should be.

(11/05/2018) Seller believes this to have been manufactured in November of 1945 (but sold in ’46), but I have not run across any evidence of this. It’s a serial number 23785. It has a replacement body.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/183176345944680
