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 .
Includes a Warn Overdrive.

(03/05/2024) The seller is correct; this is a classic PNW build, with the Desert Dogs, a V6, the diamond plate corners, the diamond plate side pieces, the Bobcat Hood, along with other updates.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/459634346632408
“The time has come for me to sell my 1946 CJ2(ish) little beast. It’s sporting a Buick 198 fireball, t90, bobcat hood, Cadillac telescopic column, rather beat up 64 corvette seats, full set of Desert Dogs, ect ect. The top is pretty beat up but keeps the weather out about as well as you could hope. All and all a great example of a classic PNW jeep. It runs and drives but could certainly use a tune up as I’ve not been driving it much at all (hence the sale) Mainly looking for cash but could be open to trades for a newer jeep that would be more daily driver friendly”
The seller listed this as a 1947, but it’s got a 1948 Lefty body.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/845323177581151
“1947 CJ2A, lefty model. Complete with title. Ford 2.0 engine 4 cyl. Turns over. $1500 ”

UPDATE: Still Available.
(09/17/2024) If I had more time for projects, I would consider snagging this. This may be the first uninstalled body I’ve seen.

“Google PARMLEY, I found a nice write up about the Parmley on ewillys.com and attached the photos from the website for reference only. These bodies were made in California to fit the CJ 5 Jeep This one has never been installed On 1946 Jeep chassis with small block Chevy and turbo 350 I have a low miles 4.3 GM V-6 and overdrive automatic for an additional 500”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(12/28/2023) Looks in good shape, though the roll bar design (which appears attached to the outside of the body) is unusual. Has a nice setup for carrying gas cans.

“Fun Willy 1949 Jeep CJ2A, daily driver but getting cold and feel like someone else should enjoy!”
This has been parked a few years.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/447506611599027
“1948 willys ran an drove when I parked it (3 years ago) very little rust, solid body. Clean PA title All wiring replaced with new harness, with LED lights. Was a side project and Unfortunately I have some personal issues come up this year and need to sell it. Asking $5,500 or best offer. Will consider partial trades as well.”
Listed as a 1949, this has a 1948 serial number.

“Hey everyone this is a pretty neat CJ-2A Willy’s Jeep. I get into a conversation every time I drive it. I wanted to keep the Patina look but clean up the inside along with reliability with this truck. Registered as a 1949 Cj-2A Jeep Willy’s. I was able to obtain a transferable registration. There is no title but I have a transferable registration. This has been a joy to own and drive. Has a few thousand $ in new parts. (Have most of the receipts) All fluids changed within 4 months. Diff, trans, engine, coolant, transfer. Could use a new fly wheel gear/ brake work. Definitely has its quirks but overall makes it down the road. 140 therm, Newer shock’s.All new wiring around, starter, battery, lights, etc. carb adjustment, Bell crank rebuild. More and more parts to add. Comes with a bin of old and new parts. This has the Kaiser supersonic engine and head. Body is alright. Some patches on it. 3 speed. 4cyl Jeep Has been a fun summer with it.”
This was listed at an estate sale just over a week ago. The sellers thought it worth $25k, but obviously it isn’t. It does look to have a column shift and tool indents.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1068814171473755
“1946 Willys Jeep, Rare, great project vehicle. All original parts. Will take best offer. It is worth about 25k

UPDATE: Seems to be still available.
(07/27/2024) This ad was posted a year ago. Unclear if still available or not.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/665709685154348
“Quite a few new parts, for some reason it wouldn’t let me post them all. You can drive it home. Pm me for list and accessories! New, starter solenoid, fuel pump, carburetor, battery, gas tank, seat frames and cushions, tire chains, jack, etc.”
The seats look comfy, but the steering wheel looks pretty close to the seat. The front frame rails have an unusual slope to them.

“Have fun with a piece of history! Great running 1948 Willys cj2a jeep, 4 wheel drive, and 4 cylinder.”
This has updates.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1726144878179079
“Great running project. I have too many cool things around and this one just don’t match my style! Runs and drives. Not perfect at all. Titled as a 1946 Willys FORGET ABOUT EMISSIONS REQUIREMENTS WITH THIS CHARM!!! Everything works on it. A few little things here and there but pretty complete for the most part. 4.3L Votec engine swap. Starts right up. NO TRADES AND VERY LITTLE NEGOTIABLE IN PERSON ONLY!!!”
Probably not much value here, but it does have some interesting mods. What is likely a Buick 215 is wedged in there pretty tight. The front springs have a unique reversal setup. The rear of the body has been patched and some unique tail lights added. The hood is secured from the top of the hood. This might have been a hotrod and a looker back in the day.

“1940s Willys not sure on exact year. Needs some love… has rust, does not run. 4×4 with v8 aluminum engine. Bill of Sale .. Sold As is- Located in Ramona $500”

“Rare 1946 CJ2A column shift Jeep for sale! The tub, frame, under carriage and engine are all original, numbers matching. Serious inquiries only.”

“1947 Jeep CJ2A No trades or lower offers Rebuilt 5 years ago Mostly original engine Stored in garage out of weather”
The body has some patches. I believe that’s a fold-down step on the passenger side?
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/869859518108749
“1946 Jeep Willys CJ-2A. Runs great. All is original. Had starter rebuilt couple years ago by specialty shop (have receipt). Brand new original style tires on original metal wheels.

This doesn’t run at the moment. It appears this was setup for a plow.

“Selling for a friend. Obviously doesn’t run as of now needs a lot of work for someone with a lot of time. Floor in rusted out in spots but covered Leaf springs need to be replaced Needs new tires Some bondo in spots Clutch pedal seems to be stuck”
