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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 one includes a tent trailer.

(05/21/2017) Tail light wiring needs “sorting out”.
“This jeep is in great shape. It runs good and is very reliable. It was restored with new paint 10 years ago. It is a driver. Only issues is I have never bothered to sort out taillight wiring and the speedometer does not work. It has a new set of ndt tires and original wheels.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
Has a few updates.
“I hate to do this, but I’ve had an unexpected financial burden hit me and need to free up some cash…
I’m selling mt 1948 Willys CJ2a. It has a Buick Oddfire V6, T90 3 speed transmission and Dana 18 t-case. The rear axle is Dana 41 and front Dana 27, 4.38 gears. It has a set of worn 265/75/15 BFG All Terrains. I’ve rebuilt the seats with new foam and covers, have new seat pans that have yet to be installed. I rebuilt the rear brakes with new wheel cylinders and shoes and upgraded to disc brakes in the front. I have rebuilt the carb, it has new spark plugs. It fires up pretty easily and runs great. The exhaust was re-done, it’s a little cheesy but it works. It runs and drives pretty good as it, but needs a proportioning valve installed (which I have). The headlights work, the brake lights need work and don’t function at the moment. The frame is solid, but there is some hokey welding on it. Body is decent, but has a big rust hole in the passenger rear tub.
It’s a great little Willys that runs and drives as is, but needs some finishing (prop. valve) and minor tinkering from there to be a fun play Flatty. I really hate to sell it, wouldn’t if I didn’t need cash.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(05/14/2017) Seller is moving and can’t take it with him.
“I purchased a ’46 Willy’s from a friend in hopes of enjoying it for a summer. I ended up having to do some work on it and didn’t get to use it. I’m moving in the near future and cannot take it with me. I’m asking less than what I have into it. Since I purchased it I have put in a new fuel pump and filter, new carburetor, new battery and replaced multiple wires and fuel lines as well. I have the original collector plates and also new WA plates that still have yet to be installed. This will be a fun rig for someone this spring and summer.”

It’s a project.
“Selling my Willys Jeep project. It was on here before, but all the calls wanted to hear it run. I did a lot of work to get it running, including a starter overhaul, relay, battery, and wiring.
It runs, but acts like the main jet is clogged. It idles well, but doesn’t have much power. I don’t have a kit or the time to rebuild it.
Starts with the key. Alternator works, but no indication, as I didn’t put in the ammeter or voltmeter. Has oil pressure. Everything in the brakes was replaced. Cylinders (wheel and master), lines, and shoes. NO PARKING BRAKE. New radiator and hoses. Turn signals added, but not wired. NO TITLE. 4WD and transfer case all work. Has the 3 lever transmission setup. 3 speed manual. Engine is the 4 cylinder flathead.
This jeep IS NOT a candidate for restoration. The frame and body are mostly held together with poorly done welding. It has poorly welded in floorboards. You won’t fall through. The front frame horns do not exist. No tailgate. I do have 3 of the 16 inch wheels.
Can’t find any numbers on the frame or body, but I do have a set of military dataplates I will include. This Jeep needs to leave on a trailer. It is not ready to be driven on the road.
I’ll reduce the price by $500 if it doesn’t start when you come to look at it.’
