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 .
Looks solid.

Both are projects.
“Two 1947 CJ2A Jeeps. These jeeps are unfinished projects. First jeep has a 283 Chevy, 350 Turbo Trans, Disk Brakes, Lifted, New 33″ tires and wheels plus more. Second Jeep has no motor, the rest is pretty much all there”
There might be some value here, but the body is probably shot.
“Not driven/started for 15 years. Includes detachable cab, new(unused) fuel tank, four winter tires.”

This picture comes from Elizabeth, Colorado. Conrad is checking out the beautiful scenery and, perhaps, contemplating the sale of his jeep, because “Lizzy” was sold a few days ago to her new owner Mark. This CJ-2A is very stock and even has its original black paint (quite rare).
Mark plans to take good care of it and preserve it as is. So, despite being sad it had to go, Conrad is happy it is going to Mark and Mark is thrilled to get it. Even better, Mark and Conrad have become friends.
UPDATE: This seller has redone several different CJ-2As like this. I may be mistaken, but it looks like the same paint that was used on the body was used on the motor.
“ENGINE:ORIGINAL 4 CYLINDER WILLYS FLATHEAD ENGINE, NICE RUNNING-ORIGINAL 6 VOLT SYSTEM.STARTS,RUNS,SHIFTS & STOPS GREAT.ENGINE HAS NO KNOCKS,TAPS, SMOKE,OR RATTLES.FRESH OIL CHANGE & LUBE.BRAKES ARE REAL NICE AND STRONG.SMOOTH,QUITE,STRONG RUNNING ENGINE.TRUE MILAGE UNKNOWN ON THIS 64 YO.

Unclear if this runs.
“Ideally I want to trade for a motorcycle(sport bike or similar preferred) I’m even willing to pay a little out of pocket for the trade if the bike is nice.”
http://nashville.craigslist.org/mcy/3085156391.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4200.
Seller needs to sell quickly.
“Super cool CJ2a 1948 Willy’S Jeep
Jeep has a full cage roll bar.
custom lift, bumpers, tires, 327 Chev engine, Dual pipes.. a mut see”
The body, windshield (square washers) and grille appear to be from an early ’46.
“Great running CJ2A Jeep with lockout hubs and starts great with strong engine…. body not so good but good enough for a cottage beater or workhorse around the farm… has a Wisconsin title and original rims with digger type tires…. brakes do not work, lights probably not also, but more uses than a 4 wheeler ATV!!…. Had planned on putting a different tub on the jeep and fixing it up but I have to many jeeps already and its to good to part out…. parts alone are well worth the 850.00 so the price is firm… will consider taking a different jeep in on partial trade, or jeep parts as I do have racks of parts that I use for projects…call 920-856-65three nine…. scammers wanting to send check with shipper need not respond…. ”

I’m wondering if those mini-terras are newer retreads. They appear in good shape.
“1948 Willys CJ2A Jeep. Mostly orgional and unmolested. very good base for a full restore project. or have a nice toy/farm/woods jeep with just a little effort. I was planing on restoing it but have not had the time to get started on it. Don’t want to see it sit, when somebody else could be using it. It has the orgional Go Devil flat head engine, 3 speed transmission, with high low 4×4 The previous owner changed the seats, converted it to 12volt, with an altanator, and added an electrit fuel pump. the plugs wires and fuel filters are fairly newer. it also has manual locking warn hubs The jeep is a project, and has not been drove in over a year, so it will need to be trailered. The orgioanl plates under the hood and in the cab are there and readable. I have a title for it These old jeeps are very hard to find, and even harder to find this complete, and has not spent it’s life as a mud bogger. price is $3200”

The Jeep comes with a full set of street tires, and a full set of mudding tires. The Jeep was purchased by my folks to use for road hunting grouse, and they have owned it for a couple of years but no longer use it.

This looks solid, though there’s been some work on this body.
“1947 Jeep Willys asking $4000 or BEST OFFER. Runs Good. Original 4 cylinder motor.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
For the price this looks good, but either the step has been altered or it is a fiberglass body.
“1946 Willys for sale. Body good condition.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500
“1946 Jeep Willys. Engine upgraded to 1966 289 out of a Mustang or Fairlane. Starts, runs strong, but carb needs to be rebuilt. Converted to 12V DC. Converted to power brakes. Front Winch Bumper with tow-brace. Built in capstan winch in bed connected to power-take off, so runs directly off the 289. Rear bumper is a tow bumper with tow-truck grade fairlead welded to the factory original angle iron bumper. Has built in air compressor tank and system. New Radiator. New Master Cylinder.

(01/03/2012) This appears solid.

This looks solid, however the floors are fiberglass.
“I have a 1948 CJ2A tub in pretty good condition. It was restored about 8 years ago but now has a few minor issues that need a little bit of work. The floors are all fiberglass so you could cut that out and replace the floor pans. Other that that it’s a really good start! It even has the original AX brackets still on the tub!

The frame is in excellent shape . . .
“i have for sale a 1948 jeep cj2a, when the jeep was purchased it did hot have any body, since then pieced one together, the welding is almost complete, needed the rear floor pan completed, the rear rocker and the original dash re installed. the engine was running in the fall haven’t tried starting it but have turned it over, befor i had it the jeep was being used to plow with during the winter, that being said the frame is in excellent shape, had pressure washed the whole thing. to inspect it.
All the id tags are matching.
have other various parts for it.
comes with a factory plow set up that works.”
http://nwct.craigslist.org/cto/3081201708.html
The grille suggests this is a mid-1947 or later. I suspect this jeep is a mix of parts or mix of title/vin plate and jeep.
“title says 48 but numbers say 46, runs good has the L134 flathead 4 cylinder. also have soft top for it. starts and runs fine with a couple small things that need attention, such as the starter doesent always engage but will and starts fine. has exhaust leak where the manafold meets the exaust but have new gasket just havent done it yet. anyway come by and drive it, its fun. im looking for a sportster or a triumph that are in good running order. they dont have to be perfect just running good. 594-zero51three”
http://montana.craigslist.org/bar/3078119677.html
Lots of custom work for this nice fiberglass crawler. I doubt there is much ’48 left. The body appears to be a Bobcat.

This has a fiberglass body. The gas inlet and windshield could stand to be altered slightly (which wouldn’t be trivial changes).
