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 $1000.
This might clean up pretty well, but you’ll need another engine.
“A nice piece of Jeep history. The first Jeep to be sold to the public after WWII.
Very original flat fender 4×4 jeep, Clean title. Needs a replacement L 134 (go devil) engine block. The Body is in very good shape, all rust has been replaced with new metal. Restored in late 80s. Good seats, No top. Break system is good. Would make a great weekend driver or trail rig.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500
(06/17/2009) If you can easily fix the wiring, then this could be a very good price. There’s some good value in the parts. I’m not sure what’s on the hood.
“1946 Jeep Willys CJ2A
1996 Fuel injected chevy 4.3 V6 mated to a SM420 4 speed transmission (the one with the huge granny gear) and a Dana 20 T-case. Newish (less that 3K miles) 35” BFG Krawlers. Front and rear axles are Dana 44’s with 4.56 gears and detroit lockers. Front is disc and rear is drum. Fully hydro steering with doubled ended, dual action cylinder. Early bronco coil suspension adapted over in the front with leaf sprung rear.
Now the bad….Squirrels got into the engine compartment and ate through the Painless wiring harness. They pretty much chewed through the main trunk that goes back to the computer. Not impossible to fix but I don’t have the time nor the inclination.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3999

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
I like this one. If it were closer ….. This appears to be an old club jeep with the rare windshield mod and some great old slot rims. It also has an updated column, probably power steering, and likely swing pedals. This might make a good foundation for an old school build.

This tub was built by hand.
“I have a 1946 Willys Jeep. I runs and drives great. It is definitely a project vehicle. I was gonna build a trail rig , and basically just use the body and place it on all modern day drive train a top a YJ frame. I have too many projects and I need to get rid of some of them. The tub was hand built by a metal fab shop, but the hood and front fenders, windshield frame and dash are all original. Who ever built the tub did a really good job. It would be fine for a trail rig, its just not original enough to restore to a ” Veterans Day Parade” type jeep. I put a new carb. and fuel pump on the original drive train and it runs great. I drive it around my yard, but it needs brakes. call me if U have any questions, I’d be happy to talk about the jeep.”
