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 $300
that’s a strangely funky windshield.
“1947 Willys CJ2A Jeep tub and title.
Comes with some extra parts.
Need it gone to make room for new project.
Make any resonable offer.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(06/04/2011) There might be some value, but pretty rusty, too.
“Here we have for sale a 194? Willys Jeep.
The engine that came with this Jeep is totally machined at Ferris State Univerity back around 1984 or so, I have all new rings, bearings, seals, gaskets, distributer cap and rotor, plugs and wires, even a new thermostat, new pressure plate, clutch, and throw out bearing. The crankshaft and camshaft were also completely machined, and the valves were ground and the seats were done also, and the valve guides were knurlized. The pistons and rods were also balanced. The engine is still apart and sitting under my work bench where it’s been since around 1984 or so. I also have a complete extra engine that goes with the whole deal, last I knew that engine was said to have run but burned some oil, but since I never heard it run I don’t know what the condition really is on it as it has been under the work bench all these years.
The jeep has a hi/low range 3 speed transmission and a lever engaged transfercase. I have the grille and starter, alt, ect. ect. I am pretty sure that all the parts are there to put this back together, they have all been stored in a trailer out of the weather all these years, and the new parts for the engine have been stored under my workbench in the garage with the two engines.
I know that I’ll never make the time to put this together and figure that if I sell it cheap enough someone may get some use out of it.
I spent a lot of money to have the work done on the engine and all the new parts were $550 so I really think that $700 is a very fair price.
Thanks for looking at this listing. I left the link to email me but a call would be much better because I don’t check the email very often.
call 231-872-5119 and leave a message if you don’t get an answer.”

(09/02/2010) This looks like a nice jeep. Note that it is missing a fuel inlet on the driver’s side of the body, there is no tailgate, and it appears to be missing the drain holes by the steps. This may be a MB body or a fiberglass body.

“I have a nice little 46 jeep that has had a lot done to it. First it has the L134 flat head 4, t-90 tranny, Dana 18 t-case, Dana 41 rear, Dana 27 front. W/ dualmatic hubs that spin prefect… Hard to find these days as most are bent from over tightening. It has a 12v converison, full set of auto meter gauges, newer 31in tires “95%” tread & nice rims, newer wiring harness. The jeep has a nice best-top soft top. The body is in great shape with typical rust by the hat channel… It’s a small amount! She runs great and is a fun driver, the title is good with current reg, as with anything that’s 65 years old it could use a couple of things. All in all the jeep is pretty much stock with some improvements that make it a whole lot more user friendly for the average person. NOTE: This jeep is not the normal abortion with 300lbs of weld holding the frame together and blown out EVERYTHING! The tranny and t-case both shift effortless.
P.s. Please don’t call asking crazy questions! $3500 obo/trade call Dan four one five 370-1447″
