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 might have a rare Porter & Reed half cab. The split window in the rear is what suggests it to me.

“The picture with me in it is when we bought it. The drive train is there. It is partially dismantled, as seen in the photos. Everything is there to get it on the road. Fenders, hood, tailgate, blinkers, headlight assemblies, roll bar, seats. Previous owner said the motor is a 283. Body has some dents and dings, but overall very solid. I think we still have wheels.”

“I have a 1946 CJ2A for sale.
The tub is in good shape, the frame needs to be repaired in a few spots. New gas tank and new gas line put in. New master cylinder but brake lines are bad. It does run – but the carb needs to be rebuilt due to a leak. It will start with a jump but will not continue to run due to the carb leak.
Currently the hood, windshield, and fenders are off of it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.

“1946 Willys Jeep CJ2A,
flat head 4 cylinder engine- runs good
3 speed transmission
2 speed transfer case
5:38 gears
Axels from a ’67 cj5 so stronger 44 rear and 27 front
Ugraded steering box, I think it is a Ford box with one piece tie-rod upgrade
Has front hubs
Has a roll bar and front push bar with winch mount
Wired 12 volt and has a new battery
The jeep runs , drives ,stops and all the lights work. Has a clear open title.
The bad:
Engine leaks oil
Transmission will kick out of second gear when you get off the throttle
It was wrecked in the passenger rear at one time
It has rust in several places
Windshield has plexiglass
I think it needs a radiator cap, antifreeze is coming out the over flow but it isn’t hot.
Tires are dried out’
