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 .

“I’ts been sitting a long time but rolls and steers. Need fully restored but it’s all here. Call or text 641-275-1554”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5200
It’s not a perfect restoration, but might be worth a look.
“F/S: 1946 Willy’s CJ2-A $5,200
This Jeep runs and drives excellently. It has new wheels and tires, fuel tank, master brake cylinder, and a 12 volt battery conversion (much more reliable than the old 6 volt systems). The Jeep has fresh oil, brake fluid, clean oil/air filters, new spark plugs, and freshly packed grease fittings.
The Jeep is a blast to drive. The 4×4, in combination with the big tires and small wheelbase, makes it a beast off-road. The “Go Devil” four cylinder motor is true to its reputation as being reliable and powerful. Also, it has a Power Take Off in the rear that can be used to power farm equipment like a generator, wood splitter, or winch. A working PTO is a rare option to find in these Jeeps.
Overall, this is an excellent old jeep. Keep in mind, though, it is almost 70 years old. It is great for cruising around town, back roads, or off-roading, but it can’t do highways. It can be driven home locally, but I would recommend transporting it over far distances. Transportation can be arranged through me for a serious buyer.
*The headlights and one brake light recently stopped working, but I have the parts to fix them and I hope to have it done before selling it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
(03/14/2013) This may be a good price if the suspension was modified to crazily.

(01/19/2013) This has some interesting rims. You might check to see if this has a title before driving out.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This has no title. It runs.
“This 1947 Jeep Willys was purchased in 1986 and has no title. it does however have a colorado VIN inspection and was cleared. it can be titled in any state … just needs some paperwork done. the VIN inspection and a bill of sale which i will provide. it was used very little for hunting on private roads so it wasnt titled in colorado. it was a project my grandfather wanted to do 25 years ago. it runs great has a Buick V6 231. it has chevrolet steering. the brakes work … just need to be bled as it has been sitting in a shed for some years now but i have been running it and with some TLC it will be a very nice vehicle again. we have a spare tire for it but it was flat so it is at the repair shop now being fixed.”
This appears in great shape, though the pics aren’t the best.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
I’m gonna guess that was a VEC CJ-2A body. It’s rough.
“1956 Willy’s Jeep. Has all the parts on it, except the steering wheel. Would be a great project, motor needs to be gone through. Bought it for $3,000 for my son, he went with a truck instead now I need it gone. Willing to take a lose on it, $2,000 is a great deal.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2100
(03/01/2013) “41 willys cj2a 4cyl f head 3spd the clutch slips sometimes but the engine runs great ”
Seller is unsure of the value.
“I have two 1946 willys jeeps i would like to sell. One jeep runs the other doesn’t my original plans were to restore the one that runs with parts from the other.

(01/28/2013) This appear solid.
“1949 Willys Jeep in good condition. Runs fine, good rubber on tires, excellent potential for complete restoration. Will take best offer.”
http://seks.craigslist.org/cto/3693372327.html
The seller claims the only body mod is the hood scoop, but the drain hole has been filled and the bow holders removed. I’m only being picky, because the seller wants a lot for it. This does have the square bow holder windshield brackets, three data plates, and the full floating rears. This must have been a really early VEC. It only has 1 hood latch.
“THIS MOSTLY ORIGINAL JEEP FEATURES AN UPGRADED, LATER MODEL JEEP 4 CYLINDER OHV ENGINE IN PLACE OF ITS ORIGINAL “GO DEVIL” FLAT 4. THE MORE POWERFUL ENGINE CAME WITH AN IMPROVED CARBURETOR ( REQUIRING A HOOD SCOOP-ITS ONLY BODY MOD). THE RED EXTERIOR BODY IS ALL ORIGINAL.

This might be a time capsule.
“1947 Willys Jeep CJ2a, civilian model, all original motor and running gear. Only $3000.00”
It doesn’t include the winch, but the winch is the focus of the picture . . .
“I have a 1947 flatfender “original” Willy’s Jeep, except of course for the engine it’s a 64′ 4 cylinder engine. The winch nor the white top doesn’t come with the Jeep. Looking to sell or trade, if it’s a vehicle you’re offering it’s would have to be made 50-state legal before it changes owners. I’m open to as old as 1992 with cash on your end, 2000 year model would be a fair trade. less then 150K miles. Please include picture of offer so I know you’re serious…”

One runs and drives.
“I have three jeeps. One does run and I have been driving it around my property. It has the flathead, rebuilt carb, new fuel pump, it runs good and does not burn oil. The transmission works great and does not jump out of 2nd or 3rd. The t-case works fine. It needs body work and frame has some cracks and has been welded on. One of the other jeeps has the flathead and complete drivetrain. Engine turns over but I have not started it. The third jeep has no engine but is good for parts.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
(03/17/2013) The body appears to be a replacement. For some reason, it’s dented near the top of the dash. I’ve never seen that. It’s a no reserve auction starting at $200.
“1947 Willys Jeep CJ2A
Titled as a 1951 (Can not guarantee the exact year) See the Vin number on the photo of the title. Might be able to look it up in a registry.
This Jeep was bought as a project about 10 years ago and do not have room to store it any longer. It has been sitting in California for the last 10 year. Purchased from a Farm in the Midwest. It sat in the barn untouched for 30 years. Was running 10 years ago but is not currently running now. Might just need a battery and a tune up to get it running. Brakes are bad and needs a full restoration. Would be a great project car as it has really good bones. There is some rust on the exterior and on the undercarriage but not that bad. Body is pretty straight.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
This looks good.
“Fully restored 1946 Willys CJ2A. Engine, gearbox, tranfer case all restored by professional shops. Frame/body paint/electrical by owner. Harvest Tan, correct color for 1946. Luzon Red wheels. Overdrive added when restored for better highway drivability. 5 new Firestone vintage truck knobby tires, has period turn signals and period heater installed. Under restoration 2000–2006, about 1000 miles on it since restoration. Located near Levenworth Kansas, can be seen by appointment.”
