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 looks in good condition and not a bad price.
“For Sale: 1947 CJ2A Willy’s Jeep. New starter; new battery; refurbished; with original flathead 4 cycle engine. Two seats. $3,000 OBO.”
Dan spotted this as well. No pics provided. This could be a deal.
“I have 2- mid 1940’s flat fender jeeps for sale.. Both have running gears and motors.. One jeep has a pick up cab.. Asking $400.00 for both obo, Rich 370-4015”
This is located at the same place that has the MB posted below. Again, this looks like a reasonable price with some decent parts.
“This is a decent condition project jeep. It’s missing the pass. seat & inner windshield frame, but is for the most part complete. The motor turns over, and all the drivetrain components spin, but I have no idea if it’ll run. The body’s pretty straight, there’s minimal rust through on the floor, and the frame’s good as well. You can come check it out at 312 S. Dishman Rd. (corrner of Dishman & Appleway) or call & ask for Dave. Shop 509-928-4460…cell 509-928-4460. Comes with a Washington state title.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
“Rare find needs good home!! Great condition. Flat fendered 1947 CJ-2A. Crate Chevy 350 engine, automatic, with very low miles. I have had it for about 5 years, but, have not had the time to use it as planned. Very little rust! Interior lined with Gator Guard. Custom front bumper with winch mount. Rollbar.

If this has a column shift, it’s a good deal. If it doesn’t, it’s still a pretty good deal.

Nice cage and looks like a reasonable body. I like the bezels on this; they appear to a little different than stock ones.
“No engine or Transmission. Has Dana 44 rear end. body in good shape. Good project vehichle. No Title. I also have a longer (jeep CJ) frame i was gonna use to put it on, if interested.”
http://louisville.craigslist.org/cto/1796503434.html
Based on the pics, I’d have to say this looks very good. I have little doubt this seller has built other jeeps. If someone completes this well, it should look great.
“I have for consideration my 1948 Willys Jeep. This is not your average Jeep for the faint hearted. I have built this from the ground up and have been building and modifying Jeeps for years. This is a brand new body tub from Willys Overland and I have the original tub as well. 400hp fuel injected 302, c4 transmission, dana 20 transfercase, super dana 30 front with eaton electric locker, open dana 44 rear, new rims and tires, and I am sure to forget something in this list. This is not far from being back on the road again. will need exhaust, guages, drivelines, plug wires, fuel tank, and the small stuff. There are alot of accesories that go with this so don’t let this great little project get away. I don’t want to trade for anything, and I am firm on my price. Thanks for looking and your consideration. Mike 918 775 4653”

This looks good and mostly stock. It appears this is missing headlights? Something doesn’t quite look right.

(02/27/2010) I’m not sure what a “B” motor is. This has some unusual mods.
“1946 WILLYS JEEP HAS B MOTOR RUNS GREAT! FOR INFO CALL”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7995.
This restoration looks like it is missing a few items.
“Up for sale is a beautiful 1948 military issued military jeep willys that has been fully restored. This willys has a 4 cylinder F134 with a dana 4 speed trans. I’m asking $7995.00 please no emails,”

http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/cto/1794969323.html
It’s a bit pricey. It looks solid and maintained.
“1948 Willys Jeep for sale! New engine! This covered Jeep is in excellent shape and runs great. Because of the new engine, this is not just a lawn ornament, but you can ride around town in this military antique. Please contact seller with any questions.”

This looks like it has some updates.
This appears mostly complete, though rough.

(12/9/2009) eWillys’ reader Bryan is selling this rig. He’s got a pretty good collection of jeeps already!
“I am going to sell my 48 CJ2A in order to restore a 3A I have been wanting to rebuild for some time. This jeep is in very good condition. Original 4cyl 3 speed. with NDT tires and rims including mounted spare. Solid jeep not perfect condition but very nice. Jeep RUNS and DRIVES. Starter is acting up and fuel lines could be flushed as it has set in a shed for two years but was licensed and on the road in 2006/2007. I also ran recently with gas through carb. Belonged to an older gentleman who fixed up to drive in parades. Couple spots in floor board(Small)and one wear mark on drivers side paint but very good. I havent seen a cleaner original split windsheild frame and I have seven jeeps. Jeep has obviously been repainted at one time but nicely done and no visible bondo. Clean tailgate, frame, body ect. Possibly willing to help deliver at purchasers expense. Clean nebraska title with original serial num. and plate If you have questions, call me 308-325- 2858. No scammers I have more pics but serious interests only.”
