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: Price dropped to $800.
No motor.

(12/06/2014) Solid militarized CJ-2A.
“This is a hybrid Willys CJ2A body and chassis, with an MB front end, with correct military accessories, and correct WWII Olive Drab green paint, made to match that of the WWII Willy’s MB. Ready to drive. It cold starts first try every time, runs smooth and drives straight. Converted to 12 Volt system. 4 wheel drive is fully operational. 8,000 miles on original 4 cylinder L head Go-Devil engine. 3 speed – T-90 Transmission. 5 brand new military style tires. Always garaged. The body has been restored, minor rust on frame. Includes PTO winch on front end, which is operational but does not have a cable. Comes with authentic soft top from a Ford GPW. Locations of choke and throttle do not match that of an MB, but can be moved to correct locations. Includes spare cylinder head, all gaskets necessary for an engine overhaul, brand new spare Solex Carburetor, new spare intake and exhaust manifolds and gaskets. This jeep is more reliable than my daily driver; I really don’t want to let it go and know I will regret it when it’s gone so come get it before I change my mind. ”

“1947 Jeep Willys CJ2-A project or parts for sale ($2500 OBO). I have most everything but the body. I started this project over 10 years ago and time/space/money just haven’t been on my side. The body was trashed when I got it and has unfortunately been disposed of. I have the windshield frame, tailgate and front seat frames. I have the motor and transmission and all of the drive-train. I have a new front left axle shaft, 4 brand new tires and tubes, 4 original rims and a couple of mis-matched spares (most have been sand-blasted), a nearly complete bearing kit and many other components needed for the rebuild. I do own the original “Jeep” stamped hood, but I do not have it at my location. I am unsure if I ever had the title, but I will scour all of my records for it. I am very sad to give this up, but it is time.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2500.
(02/05/2015) The engine runs, but jeep needs work.
“Good running jeep,4WD works,original Go-devil flathead 4,has good power,probably been rebuilt but have no papers to prove it,needs tires,and some tlc,tub has some minor rust through but not bad for an almost 70 year old jeep.I’d prefer to sell but would entertain a trade for a good diesel compact tractor or a pre 49 truck,or maybe a nice vintage boat,just ask the worst I can say is no.”

UPDATE: Still Available. Listed as a 1947, it is probably a 1948 given the bow holders on the passenger side.

This may be a 3A chassis. The body is a big of puzzle. I’m guessing replacement that went along with the non-script hood.
There may be some value here.

Includes a trailer.
“Up for auction, 1946 Willys CJ2A Jeep with a Bantam Trailer BARN FIND. This little Willys is in good shape with some rust, she does run but a little rich, she will need the carb tuned up. The battery is no good, she drives, shifts in high low and all of the gears and stops. She needs a new home, you see I’m in the National Guard and will be attending a lengthy resident course, so she doesn’t need to be sitting in the Barn for another year. Someone needs to restore her and enjoy taking weekend rides in the summer. She is civilian, but has some military items that come with her, such as a Jerry can with spout, extra (3) non directional tires, shovel, fuel can mount, spare tire mount, machine gun mount, two military tool boxes and I will even throw in an old army field desk. I have an old school bus seat that I was going to cut down and use as a back seat that comes with her. All the tires are holding air and in decent shape. The Bantam trailer is also a restoration project, does have a new tail light and the tongue stand is with her. I always wanted to get this project going and put these two items together, I think it would be pretty fun, but out of time and my military career and retirement take priority.”
