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 $100.

“Old junk Willy jeep for parts. Drive train in tacked no engine very rust.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4400.
(07/19/2015) The windshield vent has been patched rather than replaced.
“1948 Willys Jeep CJ2a. Mostly stock condition. Runs great! Engine, transmission, and powertrain are all very strong. Needs wiring work for the lights. This jeep has been well-cared for, and is in fantastic shape for a Willys that hasn’t been fully restored. Ready for use on the trails, or as a daily driver around town. As with any vehicle this age, it does require tinkering. Title in hand. Please reply to this ad with any questions or for a showing..”
UPDATE: Still Available.”Everything’s original” … well not much at all.
(10/05/2015) Looks to have a replacement body and some customizations. Quite a bit of this is unoriginal.

“1948 Willys Jeep CJ2 mild custom. 350 with a mild cam, Rochester 4-barrel carb, Muncie 4-speed manual transmission with Dualmatic overdrive, Dana 30 front axle with manual lockout hubs and a Dana 44 axle out back. Low mileage restoration, very clean inside, outside, top and bottom all metal fab done by previous owner and great attention to detail on every part! No rust at all, all steel body, two tops included (full top with doors and bikini), all canvas in great shape, interior in great shape as well. Tires, brakes and mechanicals in good working order, can drive anywhere at highway speeds! Also includes matching steel hood with fiberglass hood scoop and black high-back bucket racing seats. Small items that need attention: no fuel sending unit in fuel tank, so gas gauge does not work, 4WD works, but have not tested low range, no turn signals due to age, wiper motor is not hooked up. Price reflects the condition of vehicle. Don’t miss out on this solid, unique and fun ride!!!

Needs some work. but appears worth a look.
“I am selling a 1946 jeep willys. It is a little rough but is a perfect start for someone who wants to fix something like this up. It has a Buick V6 engine in it that runs great but could use a little valve adjusting due to some smoke. Has a working heater since it did have a hard top on it at once. This Willys runs and drives. Has Saginaw steering box with chevy steering column. Could use some new tires soon as the ones on it were off a vehicle with bad alignment so wear is not so good. The do hold air and are drive able though. Has a dana 30 in the rear with the stock axle up front. Believe it has the stock gearing. 4×4 works and has Warn hubs up front. Has a aftermarket fuel cell that im guessing holds over 15 gallons mounted behind seats. Needs a little tlc and some normal maintenance but other than that its good to go. ”

“1946 Willys Jeep CJ2A
This is the first model of civilian jeeps produced after WWII.
Jeep does need work. It will start… sometimes. When I pulled it out of the driveway to take pictures of it to sell, the brakes were not working. I haven’t checked into why, so it could be an easy fix or may not be. Jeep has a Tennessee title.
The jeep is mostly original parts and is about 99% complete with the exception of windshield wipers and possibly some odd things that I don’t know about. I also have manuals that come with the jeep (more than likely they are reprints).
Jeep has a 4 cylinder flat head engine, 3 speed transmission, and is 4WD.”
May be a good price.
