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 .
This has an aluminum body and a Ford 4cyl engine.

“1952 CJ3a. The 4 cylinder flat head runs for a second or two when gas is poured down the carb. Tub has lots of rust. Clean title in my name. The windshield and hard half cab are for a CJ2a and do not fit quite right. Seat frames, wheels, and heater appear to be period correct. Located in Ashton, Idaho AND NO WHERE NEAR and hundreds of miles away from Boise or Coeur d’alene, Idaho. Tires will hold air just long enough to load on a trailer. Price is firm or I will part it out to make my money.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(06/25/2023) No interior or engine pics, but might be a solid jeep.

“1948 Willys CJ2A with clean Utah title in hand. The Good: 350 CI Chevrolet Goodwrench crate engine with very few miles, it runs well. Edelbrock Pro-Flo multiport EFI, adapter bellhousing mates to the original manual transmission, transfer case features twin shifters. Clutch is like new, All new brake shoes and wheel cylinders, new wheel bearings and hubs in front axle, and lots of other new parts. AutoMeter gauges all work. Includes a soft top. All fluids are fresh. The Bad: Power steering isn’t connected, unsure if it will work or not. Brakes and clutch are not working, likely a bad master cylinder and possibly a clutch slave cylinder. Some cancer on the floor pan support rails which is common because these were built with wood between the metal in these areas. Otherwise the rest of the body is cancer free. This 1948 CJ2A is a great platform for a rock crawler, sand buggy, or whatever your vision is. The 350 small block Chevy has tons of power for a small, lightweight vehicle like this. You can finish it as is or put the clean body on a custom frame built for whatever you’re in to.”
This appear to have some late model Free-Lock hubs.

“Willys. 1946 CJ2A (agri Jeep or farm jeep) Note the extra shifter in the floor….. I purchased this Jeep from my parents estate. My dad had many Jeeps through the years and this one he thought was special because not many agri jeeps were produced. Has been in storage for last 8 yrs right where these pics were made. I did crank it a few times but I think fuel pump has gone bad since. 134cu.in. “Go Devil” engine makes 63 hp @ 2,000 rpm.
These Jeeps were hitched to plows, cultivators,mowing machines, harrows,and lime spreaders to tackle common farm tasks. Tires are dry rotted, there is a small hole in floor board on pass side [see pic] all other sheet metal seems to be in good shape. Chassis not rusted, only surface rust. Was painted best I can remember 20 yrs ago… New top bows as indicated in pics, do not have the canvas top. Tilt out windshield. Also have an extra engine, transfer case and trans, along with 2 extra heads. Not sure of the year but looks to be the same thats incld. Will assist in loading. Could get it running and drive as is or restore.”

“***I am helping a friend sell this, please be patient and I will answer questions as I am able to relay them and get a response*** VIN: 38222 1946 Jeep Willys CJ2A 77 year old vehicle in fantastic condition has minor dings here and there but no major dents or damage to body or frame. Has some surface rust on undercarriage as shown. Needs a little TLC and can be a great winter project. Starts every time, but can be a little touchy with a one barrel carburetor. Numbers matching engine, original dash information tags included. Mostly original except basic maintenance items. Also unsure about the paint being original. Unlikely, unless the paint is very faded because research suggests the factory blue would’ve been much darker. New battery in 2019, whole fuel system replaced, fuel filter, fuel tank all done by Hubbell’s Auto Repair in Marion, IA. Had professional welder check over undercarriage and did frame brace welding work. Factory storage bin under passenger seat was professionally refabricated and welded by the same welder and he did a great job. Factory bikini top included. Originally 6V converted to 12V prior“

Listed as a 1945, It appears later than that. No description provided.

The 1945 has the correct windshield and rear free floating hubs for a 1945 model. The other is likely later than 1945.
