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 $12,000.
This has been stored in a shed for forty years. Unclear if it runs or not.

“I am selling a nice 1948 Willys CJ2A Jeep. The jeep is in good shape for its age, It’s had a hard top on it for years which I just took off as it was not in very good shape so there is no gone through rust that I can see in the floors. There is a little rust in the hat channels but not very much. The motor is an original early Flat head four cylinder and it starts right up and runs VERY good. Doesn’t seem to smoke and purrs like a kitten. I went out to start it today and it was about 30 degrees out and it fired right up and ran great… The transmission will shift into first and reverse but wont go in second or third for some reason. I have another complete transmission with transfer case that is in good shape that I will give the new owner, and it shifts through all the gears. I have new hubs for the jeep and its also the original 6v electrical system!! Sold as is, I have a clear Colorado title for the jeep. Its located in Crawford Colorado but I can ship to Colorado springs or if you are somewhere close to Colorado. If you have any questions please call me at (970-210-0680)”

UPDATE: **SOLD** $150 … note the piece across the front of the rear wheel wells. I’ve seen similar installs on other jeeps. Unclear if this was an aftermarket piece or not.
“Cleaning out shop.
I bought this to get parts for another that I am rebuilding. This offering is for the tub/body only with good clear title, and it is probably only good for a mudder. There is no tailgate.

(10/03/2011) The grille appears to be a ’46 or early ’47 grille.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
Check out where the driver’s side drain hole is. It is floating an inch or two higher than it ought to be. So, there’s been some strange work done on that side. It also looks like this had the tool indents on the body. This does have a column shift and the three data plate setup.
“This auction is for an amazing 1946 Willys CJ2A Jeep. This is truely an amazing original old jeep that needs a new home.
The motor runs strong and smooth. The three speed “on the tree” column shift manual transmission shifts smooth and easy. It is clear that this jeep was not abused on the farm, like most were. I bought the jeep at the beginning of the summer and have put alot of work into it. The body was in great condition for the year! I did patch the floor in a few spots, but it is mostly original. The body was worked over, and the new paint shines great! The wiring was gone-through, and the lights and gauges work. The seats were reupholstered, and look great. This is a nice old flat fender jeep that gets some looks. It does need a set of tires. The ones on it now hold air, but are not road worthy.
This CJ will be stored in my climate controlled garage until the completion of the auction. It will be sold with a bill of sale, and an old registration. The state of New Hampshire does not require a title on vehicles that are considered antiques. ”
UPDATE: This was priced at $1200 on Craigslist last month and posted at eWillys. The seller decided to put this on ebay and the ebay bid price is now $2900. The lesson? More people should read eWillys!

This jeep is all stock except for the 2 inch lift Rancho leaf springs and 31″ narrow super swampers. It has a TJ roll cage, extended bed, and bucket seats.

A fun trail jeep or nice stock restoration project.”
