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 is listed as a 1945 CJ-2A. The frame lacks frame horns and does not appear it ever had them. The windshield is not from a ’45. This appears to have a later frame, though someone has installed a 2A grille. Note the break and clutch pedal mods.

“Vintage vehicles in estate in person bid auction- March 30, Boonsboro MD. 1948 Willys jeep, 74 Jeep pickup, 76 Mazda, 1953 Chevy Belair, 1954 Chevy sedan delivery van, 1999 Plymouth minivan.

Runs and drives.

“1948 willys cj2-a This is a fun jeep to drive, it runs and drives down the road great and has a clean title. The fourwheel drive works as it should and it has been converted to 12volt system. Had plans to restore this jeep but have too many projects and not enough time. Its a good jeep to drive around the way it is or do a full restore and take it to car shows and parades”
Needs brake work.

“1947 jeep! It’s a running and driving military style jeep. It does need work on the brakes. I put a new clutch in it when I swapped the body. This isn’t a perfect jeep but it very solid. It’s converted to 12v. Lights are not hooked up. 4×4 works and this thing will go anywhere! I don’t want to sell but I’m putting up a new building and the toys gotta go! I have a vin verification from the sheriff’s office so a registration can be obtained”
Doesn’t start at the moment.

“1948 keep willy’s cranks but won’t start everything is there to redo!!”
Andy shared this lengthened CJ-2A. It looks about the same length as the CJ-2Ls. It’s just rare to see one this far east.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/890064358941381/
“Up for sale is my 1948, CJ2L (cj2a just longer). This was in the same family since the 50s, was on a private ranch. It has 14 inch wheels, and a stretch from the dealership. I purchased this as a back up plan for a couple trips this coming year incase my other jeep didnt get finished. It looks like I’ll finish my other Willys in time so it’s up for sale. I have a clean and clear title, it runs and drives great has a brand new Joe Jennings rebuilt carb on it, needs some brake work (personally I would do the disk brake conversion- about $450)”
This is an odd one.

“47 willis reworked engine runs good .clean nc title”
If the data plates are original, than this isn’t a 1948.

“1948 Willys Jeep 4 cylinder. Runs and drives good. Listing for a friend so please Call [hidden information] for more info. $12500 obo.”
This is a project.

“46 willys cj2a project. Has 65 Mustang 289 engine. Ran before restoration. Front axle has been rebuilt. All have all parts to finish and extras that come with if price is right.many seals replaced so far new brakes in front .”
Not sure how much value is here.

It’s a project without an engine.

“CJ 2A body and two rolling chassis no engines”
Not sure if the $2500 covers everything? The truck has something installed on the back. The CJ-2A appears to have a Worman hardtop that has been converted to a half-cab.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/808057320409468
“2 jeeps, rolling chassis, and some parts.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(02/24/2023) Lots to like here. The master cylinder may need a rebuild.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1148754286006793
“New carb ,coil,electric box,starter needs I think master cylinder”
This old school build looks in great shape. No year listed in the ad. It has one of the more unusual roll bar designs, as it appears the roller is bolted to the sides of the body.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/900471401072418
“All rebuilt – upholstery, paint & garaged for 25 years. Great condition! 48,000 miles Installed new carburetor and seat belts.”
Glenn shared this set of early CJ-2A plates. I can’t tell if a serial number had been stamped into the center plate or not. These may or may not be VEC plates.

“I have the dash data tags from a very early cj2a. These tags are from a rare willys cj2a that used a modified military mb frame from the factory. The jeep has been parted out.”
The blue CJ-2A is likely a 1946.

“I have 2 1947 WILLYS Jeep, well I have the title for one so 1 with title, 1 for parts. They are both complete, but my plan was to use the frame off one, body off other. I have had these for awhile and my plans have changed and I know I will not complete this. They are projects! What will it take to make them road ready? Depends on what you want! They do not run, but the one motor turns over, other use to, but not sure now! I took the fender off to replace the steering column and never put it back on. Only thing missing to make 2 complete is seats, steering column and small stuff. I’m asking 2000, but will take a reasonable offer,I believe this is a very fair price considering I have a title, now with that I have not put it in my name, but will or give the paperwork needed for you to do. My plan is to get them cleaned out and possibly moved from where they are,but not sure if I will, I feel it doesn’t matter much cuz they are PROJECTS!!! they are located in Alcolu SC”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(12/04/2022) No title. Listed as a 1949, the early grille suggests it is a 1946 or early 1947.

“Old Jeep Willy been in the family for over 20 years, has been sitting for the last 8 years. New spark plugs, distributor cap, new wiring, needs new battery or jump and turns over. Bill of Sale Only at this time”
UPDATE: Still Available? This was listed several years ago. It inexplicably just popped up on my search. Still listed under the sam FB ad link.
(12/04/2019) Needs work.

“Rebuilders dream! 1947 Willys CJ2A Jeep. All original. Body, motor and drive train in good condition but it hasn’t been started in a number of years. Seats need re-upholstered. Various new/spare parts included as well as owner’s manual and rebuilder’s manual. Original wheel rims included”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1800.
Listed as a 57 or 59, this looks to be a 1948 CJ-2A.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/697022558685310
“Are you looking for the most amazing project?! This CJ-2A would be a great place to start! It seems to be all here and the body is in good shape. Just needs someone to put it back together! It would be a sweet body swap for a rock crawler or a great build back to original. I’m not sure if it’s a 57 or a 59. No title. I bought it with another one with the intention of restoring them. That’s what I’ll do if they don’t sell. I’ve just got a handful of projects right now and hate to see them sit. Looking for cash. No trades, and no scams. I know all the tricks. Thanks for looking.! Make me an offer! And feel free to contact me with any questions”
Given the Hemet Jeep Club stickers on the sides, this was likely a California jeep at some point.

“Not the prettiest girl at prom, but runs great and body is straight. Has a few mods: electronic ignition, new plugs, wires, water pump, hoses, and valve adjustment. Two fuel tanks with separate filters and pumps for each. Runs great, have extra set of wheels for fatter off-road tires. Used mainly as an around town runner lately, and for “farm work” (dragging and grading the yard mainly). Willing to consider trades toward rv/toy hauler/concrete work/ paramotor lessons and equipment/etc.”
