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 .
This appears to have a replacement body.

Lots of rust and plenty of work left on this project.

This needs some work.
“1946 CJ-2A
Classic Willys Jeep – $3100
I am selling this b/c I haven’t the time or the place to fix it up right..
Runs.
Has F-143 Engine. I have fixed a couple things on the motor, such as thermostat. I HAVE a stock gas tank(still in the box) that I bought that will come with this package.
This Willys will need a little work, but not at lot.
Currently it is in a storage unit since I do not have room in my garage to put it anymore. Last time I ran it was when I moved it into the garage in June. (When I last ran it I ran the fuel lines, bowl, and carb dry so it would not gum up the system.)
Please reply to this posting if you are interested. Or you can call 740-739-7952, leave a message if I do not answer, as I am rather busy at times and cannot receive phone calls.
NO Solicitation Please.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1900.
(03/16/2011) Is the windshield extra tall or is that an illusion caused by the paint stripe?
“1946 willys jeep, rebuilt F head engine, new steering box, call randy”
This looks like a good price.
“For sale: 1946 Willys column shift jeep. Runs and stops, just needs finishing. Comes with working rear PTO.
This was going to be a long term project for me, but circumstances have changed and now I am forced to sell. This particular jeep is rare due to the column shift and the fact that is still have the rear mounted PTO.
Most everything works but the emergency brake needs to be adjusted and the dash light needs to be hooked up. I removed the car seats that were in it and have found some original CJ2A seat frames for it. It does have some old turn signals on it but they do not work, nor do they need to to have it inspected..
The green jeep shown in the pics is NOT for sale.
Please, no scammers or tire kickers, I know what this jeep is worth, and know what I am asking for it is fair. A very rare jeep that will make a very good project for someone.
Thanks for your consideration.”

(07/31/2011) The body looks pretty good.
“1948 WILLYS running four cyl. three speed all original. Flexible on the price.”
Still Available. UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
UPDATE 2: I received some images from the seller. This looks like an exact duplicate of the western parkettes. Call the seller if you want a rare fiberglass body.
UPDATE: I’ve exchange some information with the seller. Apparently, there were two Parker brothers. One ran a garage that was known as Parker Jeep (he has passed away). Apparently, the Parker that moved West, moved back to Georgia where the brothers created some additional bodies (he now lives in Gainesville). As best as the seller knows, he has the only jeep that was actually assembled, though not complete, with an Eastern body.
“this a 1946 willys jeep frame drveline suspension etc the tub is hand laid fiberglass built by two local brothers as i was told by one of the original people that assembled them they were built onthe west coast for racing in the sand body is in excelante shape extra set of axles have a good trans transfer case drive shafts motor needs to be built this is the only one that i know still exists wasnt many to start with looking to trade for rat rod project s-10 what ever ramptruck needing work just about anything never know 1-828-557-3343 no stupid calls dont need any help just thought i would see what is out their have my phone on all day pretty late in the evening”

Brett spotted this CJ-2A. The front turn signals are non standard, but aren’t too bad for non standard ones. Anyone know the vehicle of origin? It has an OD.

I’m guessing the wood piled on top of this jeep indicates it doesn’t run.

There might be $200 of value here.
“1946 Willys Jeep 4×4
vehicle has no title,being sold for parts, bill of sale will be given
The jeep was running when parked 8 years ago for a hub issue, the hub was pulled and never repaired and the jeep has sat in the same spot ever since(hence the trees growing up around it). Jeep does not currently run, but all drivetrain components(engine,transmission,transfer case,differentials,axles) are fine. The drivetrain is the original Willys flathead 4 cylinder,3 speed tranny, all complete. The hood,front fenders,grill,tailgate and dash are in good shape. The tub(floorboard area) is completely rusted out. The frame is badly rusted on the back half, the front half looks strong and useable. The buyer will need a trailer,ramps, and a winch to transport the jeep, we can provide some assistance with loading if necessary. If interested, please call Scott at 512-844-3218, do not email.
The tow bar in the picture is not included in the sale of the jeep and will be removed this weekend.
Thanks for looking.”
