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 on $6500.
That’s a funky little winch on front.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.
(10/28/2012) Needs some work, but unclear what items need work.

“946 Jeep CJ2a for sale. I pulled it out of a barn two years ago and it wasn’t running at the time. I restored the carb, fuel pump, gas tank & sending unit, fuel filter, new distributor, plugs and battery. Restored using all the original parts except the distributor. Stripped down the entire inside and primed. Really good body, no rust. I have it idling well now and I have driven, but the carb needs tuned in (metoring guage) and the timing may need to be adjusted (I set it by ear). I do not have the time to dedicate to the project and would love for this ‘ol boy to go to a real Jeep fan. Feel free to call.”
Only one photo. Not real helpful.

Parts jeep.
“1947 Jeep Willys for sale, asking $500 as a parts vehicle. Tub is entirely rusted, but the frame, the engine, transmission, transfer case axles and springs are intact. Engine probably needs a rebuild, does not run, seemed locked in gear, clutch appears failed with pedal the floor.
I bought with the intention of salvaging all of the above and rebuilding and just replacing the body. Finding 47’s with mechanical this intact is a challenge.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1900.
(04/03/2015) Has some old mini-terras.
“1948 Cj 2a, all original running gear. Lots of rust in body, frame is solid. Brakes done, engine runs, but smokes.”

This is probably a mixture of M-38 and CJ parts.

The body still needs work.

I’d say this has seen some mud a few times. I’d guess not a whole lot of ’47’ left.
“stretched 47 willys full cage nice race seats 4 pt harnesses tach built 383 small block 3,500 stall converter in a turbo 350 38.5 tsl boggers on nice rims corporate 14 in the rear dana 44 in the front spare ujoint for the rear and a extra driveline possible part trade but mainly cash 5,000 obo”

Worth a look. Has f-engine.
“Great jeep! Runs, drives, in good shape! Have used it for pulling logs and cruising the back roads. Has the F head engine in it. Needs a little work but good to go as is! Great for a project! To busy to enjoy it anymore, willing to negotiate a bit, or possibly consider a trade.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2300.
I don’t see any reason to think this is a VEC or a ’45.
“1945 CJ2A civilian jeep. Original motor has been redone. Frame in excellent condition with a no rust body. Nice shape for the year. Was running a few years ago with a no smoke motor. Transmission and four wheel drive transfer case working properly.”

“Willys Overland Jeep CJ-3A – $2500 OBO, Ready for restoration.
2 – L-134 Engines, one dissembled and ready for machine shop
2 – Transmissions
2 – Transfer cases”
This is a package deal. Brian Miller is selling these for what he paid. The one on the right runs, but has a rusted body. The body on the left isn’t rusty, but according to the tag it’s a CJ-3A body (though Brian didn’t seem convinced when I mentioned it). He’s got more parts that go along with the 2A/3A package. You can call Brian at 515-559-4462.
