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 $550
I’d say this needs work.
“1946 Willys CJ-2A. Complete but does not run. Good for restore project or parts for other Jeep projects. $550.00 OBO”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
This runs and looks good for the price.
“1947 Willys CJ2A jeep. Runs and stops okay. Needs some TLC. Fun jeep to drive around the farm or out in the woods. Mostly all original. 1500.00 OBO ”
This looks to be a great price.
“Have a 1947 Willys CJ2A up for grabs. It’s a bit of a project, but a LOT better than some of these you find.
First off, the carburetor is fouled up so it will not start. It cranks find, but will not fire. If this is an issue, close the ad.
Buick 350 V8
Heavy Duty Automatic Transmission
Twin Stick Transfer Case
Upgraded Axles with electronic lockers(price the eaton e-locker) Rear is a D44 or D60, not sure which. Previous Owner said 60. Not sure of the front.
Upgraded to Front Discs
Basic Rollcage
Seats have been modified for larger drivers
Dual Gas tanks
Warn 8000lb Winch
Almost brand new 33″ Pro Comp tires + Spare with nubs still on it
6″ Black Diamond Lift
Manual Steering
Brand new battery.
All lights work, if running should pass inspection. No emissions!
This Jeep needs finishing, but not a ton. The body is straight, with only surface rust in a few places. Mostly chrome trim.
The Lockers, Winch, and tires are worth most of my asking price.
Very much interested in trades for more modern Jeeps(cherokee, cj5, cj7, yj, etc). Or cash in hand. Serious buyers can get my phone number via email.
I will be 100% upfront on this to the best of my abilities. Feel free to ask any questions, make an offer, etc.
I am not forced to sell this, just want to fund other projects.”

(09/27/2011) That is a seriously stretched body.
“I have a complete brand new fiberglass willys jeep body. I had extra re-inforcement in key areas by a fiblerglass shop, and also had them stretch it to allow room for rear seats (I have kids) Anyways the project got scrapped for another. I have 3k into this body. It has been notched to allow a small block chevy to fit in the engine bay. Also had reinforcement but more for the looks the inside is fitted with aluminum diamond plate and the outter body has tread plate accents.”
This looks like a solid little jeep.

UPDATE: Still Available.
(04/15/2012) This appears to be a VEC body. I wonder what the purpose of the mini roll bar loop.

It needs a little work.
“Its a 1947 Flat fender JEEP WILLYS CJ2A
it has a chevy 283
a dana 20 transfer case
dana 44 front and rear axle
I bought it as a fixer upper and as a little mud bogger, but I just do not have time. It is not in perfect shape by any means but it is very drivable and very fun in the mud. It will need a new radiator but that is the only immediate thing that it is going to have. It has a soft top and soft doors. And yes it does run, and well.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** WAS $3000.
This has an interesting dash glove box.

This appears solid, but has had some body work done.
“I have a clea jeep running driving clean title almost all original except for tires and wheels and seats. I have the full enclosure almost new. has complete original running gear. I drive it regularly. there is one issue and it is that the starter acts uo here and there. I also have the rear mount pto setup for it. not installed yet. just takes a couple bolts. ready to drive clear title in my name.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $300
“1946 CJ2A Willys Jeep body. This ad is for the body only, tub, windshield (glass still good), grill, tailgate, fenders, and hood.
Is it rusted? Yep. Is it a semi-hack job? Yep. Is it worth $300? Yep.
It can be salvaged if you want to save it, too much work for me. Or you can slap it on your running gear and wheel the dog snot out of it.
Again, just in case there is any confusion, ONLY the body is for sale, and the price is $300. If you can’t afford it I understand, just don’t waste my time with lowball offers.”
Needs work. Check out the tire size differences on the rear.
