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 .
Seller doesn’t know much about this jeep. It does have an f-head.

“Just gauging response to this. On the fence about getting rid of it. Need brakes, radiator, and last valve is stuck open. Needs freed up and should be fine. New wiring harness, starter rebuilt, new shocks, new fuel lines, all original.”
It doesn’t run at the moment. Steps are missing.

“1947 willys jeep CJ2A project or parts rig. No title.. It’s a mix of 45 through 47. The head is a 1945 Ford GPW. I took this in as a partial trade. #4 cylinder has a hole in it. Still worth saving IMO. Trans and tcase are there. Some of the engine stuff is missing. No seats. Thats how I got it. Axles and frame are in great shape. Tub needs some work but also worth saving. No title. Not parting and not separating. Ive found something else I would rather put my time and effort in to. They look great with the 1/4 ton trailers behind them or slammed into a rat rod. You could go in any direction with this.. Delivery available for a fee. 1500.00 or trade for IH, jeep or Squarebody vehicles or part”
Both 1947 and 1948 appear in the ad, so I’m not sure which is accurate. This includes a rear PTO and gearbox.

“1947 Willy’s CJ2a For parts or restoration. Body is in rough condition could use repair or replacement but chassis and drivetrain are complete. Engine needing rebuild has been removed and is sitting in my shed. Full rear PTO turns freely, shifter works fine.”
This has a Worman hardtop. I expect this doesn’t run?
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1547712468968607/
“Restorable condition best offer 1947 Jeep willys.”
The chassis doesn’t not appear to be a. 2A chassis (missing front frame gussets).

“Selling for a friend. This is a beautiful cherry red 1947 Willys CJ2A that’s an older restoration. It runs, drives, stops, and has a clear title. I highly recommend watching the YouTube video about this Jeep titled “Buying a Barn Find Jeep & Making it Run Again” under channel name Turn N Burn for detailed information about this Jeep. Service completed in 2022: -All new brake components -Repacked wheel bearings -New water pump -New fuel pump and lines -New 8V battery which is running the factory 6V system -Misc oil seals replaced -New radiator hoses and thermostat The body restoration wasn’t completed to exact factory condition, but the Jeep overall looks great. I would recommend some tlc by making the headlights work, rebleeding the brakes, and removing play from the steering. However, it is ready to enjoy for the season.”
Has some sears branded hubs. Could be worth a look.
