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: Still Available.

“This is a running, well maintained, 1946 CJ2A that I’ve owned since 1968, and kept it garaged. The speedo has always worked since I’ve owned it and I believe mileage is accurate at 78,766. No front end shimmy. Title is clear. The doors are easily removed by pushing out the hinge pins and the rear upper gate removes like a storm window. the entire cab can be removed by unscrewing four large wing nuts around the back, and two j-Bolts holding the roof to windshield frame. Price includes lots of new and used parts.
EI: Clutch and pressure plates, front axels, U-Joints, Carburetor, differential (New still in cosmoline), windshield wiper vacuum motor, new in the box sealed beam headlight, complete military shop manual, tie rods and ends, water pumps and much more….”

Pretty stock jeep for a California jeep.
“This jeep is in very good condition. It has been garaged for 20 years. It has a new rebuilt transmission with a new clutch. Re-wired through out and a re-built generator. It has the original engine. It needs minor work. IE brake leak fluid at the drums. The ignition key was lost and one of the transmission covers leaks gear oil.
It has gun racks and the back removable seat. This jeep has not ran for 20 years and will need some TLC.”
Looks like it may have had some body work along the driver’s side. Only one pic at the moment.

Maybe some value?
“Selling a project of mine. It’s a 1947 CJ2A Willys Jeep. The body and frame are pretty rough. Transmission and transfer case are not installed. Transfer case looks good but transmission needs to be rebuilt. The engine has been converted to a 4cyl Ford Pinto and has the adapter plate. Engine cranks over and everything works however wouldn’t start. Probably wouldn’t take much effort to get her started though. Oil and filter are fresh. New coil (has been converted to 12V). New starter motor.
Would be good as a parts vehicle or a project.
I do not have the title for it. ”

Jay spotted this one. It’s listed as a 1949. It’s missing the column shift and the early windshield, so this might be a mix of parts.

(02/28/2014) Lots of updates, including a fiberglass body.
“I’ve had this for a few years and I’ve had a lot of fun driving it! it a 1949 chassis and a fiberglass body.
its a great little rat rod if you like getting attention at car show or just driving around town.
the motor has a noise a valve maybe. I have driven it like that since I have had it. the seats are original jeep seats. last time I drove it to a local car show and parked close there was more people around it than any vehicle and kids love it!
PS As you can see I bend the water can, but it didn’t hurt anything else, it has three bolts holding it on. If I don’t sell it I’m going to order the original can holder and a new can that works, for around 75 dollars, thanks for looking!”
