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 .

“for sale. willys jeep cj2a engine parts. 2 complete engines, 2 mostly complete engines, 1 bare engine block, generators, radiators, carbs, intake/exhaust manifolds, fly wheels, clutch/pressure plate assemblys, etc….I’d like to sell these extra parts so I can afford to fix up my old 46 cj2a.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $150.
“Hard top and doors for Willys jeep. This is an aluminum top and doors made by Metro Engineering. It is a civilian version of the military “cab enclosure”. This model is an “arctic top”. The top is in good shape with all glass, but rear window is cracked. The front was modified to fit a different windshield frame, so 2 corners and the nose are missing. Some fabrication would be needed to install with whatever w/s frame you’re using.. The w/s frame pictured is included. Should fit any of the flatfenders maybe others. I am willing to deliver up to 10 miles away and maybe further with gas money. $150 O.B.O.
Anyone know the history behind this? I can’t tell how big it is, but I’m guessing it’s pretty small.

This is a mix of MB/GPW parts and CJ-2A.
“I have basically a complete 1946 CJ2A that is completely disassembled. I restored a 1943 GPW for a guy and have this parts Jeep leftover. Almost everything is there, but it is a major project or parts for your project. Have an Iowa title, but can not find a VIN on the frame. Usually not a problem with these older Jeeps.”
No pics of the top. The price looks good.
“I have a very nice full soft top for CJ2A or any other jeep that size. Made by Best top. It is a Tiger top and comes with all the hardware (doors, bows, windows). Used only twice and was garaged. Call 503-593-9451. Thanks”
This might make an interesting project.
“$200 OBO This 1940s cj2a frame was elongated many years ago, it had at needed it for a flat bed to be added to the back, would be a great frame to chop up for parts, many of the pieces on this frame are good for replacements to existing frames, cash, must pick up, contact matt, need the space, no title”

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was listed at $1500.
I can’t say I’ve seen many of these hardtops.
“Very rare 76-86 Acme fiberglass hardtop with doors for cj5. New exterior paint and in excellent condition. All glass is good and door glass opens freely. This model has the lower windows in doors, so easier to see the ground. Took me two years to find this one. Sold jeep and now have extra hard top.”
The jeep looks rough.

This aide kit came with a surplus WW2 jeep Charles’ brother bought in 1946. However, it doesn’t appear to be a WW2 jeep kit. Anyone have additional insights (I don’t know anything about these).
Charles notes: “The kit is metal, 8″X5″X2.5″ olive drab with a Red Cross symbol on the top. I could find no numbers of any kind. On the directions for use inside is the name of the company that distributed it. (First Aid Supply Co., 32 West 22nd St, New York 10, NY)”

“pair of bucket seats and engine cover(red) please make offer that’s all I got left”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Marc spotted this unusual bed extension. I think this is a non-newgren extender that’s been customized.
” ***I had this listed 2 weeks ago. It attracted almost 50 watchers but no bids at $400. I have nothing to compare it to. So I will let the market set the price at $200 and above.***
Extension bed or extension body for vintage Willys CJ Jeeps. During the Jeep craze following WWII, Willys and several other companies were making all sorts of Jeep accessories. One of the coolest was the Extension Body or Extend-A-Bed. Some were made “knocked down” for assembly by the owner. Others were made “welded up” and ready to bolt on. This bed extension is “welded up” and installs with only 8 bolts. I do not know who, when or where this bed extension was made. There is no maker’s tag present. The floor and sides are formed from one solid piece of heavy sheet steel turned up at the sides. It took a heavy metal brake to form this steel. The body is braced and welded. All bolt holes to mount to the jeep are present.
Bruce has this parts’ chassis for sale.
“willys 1949 cj-3a rolling chassis frame. this is what is left from the parts we stripped for another restoration. frame was sanded in spots and POR15 applied. we have had very good luck with the condition of the parts we rendered from this “parts” jeep. please do not hesitate to make an offer for any “take-off” you might want. shipping can be arranged. may be seen by appointment. please email any questions, thanks.”

Steve spotted this unusual heater for sale. I found a 1998 reference to a similar heater from the Willys Tech site (but couldn’t get the actual post to appear). Anyone seen another like this?
“his is off my jeep cj2a willys 1946. It’s an under seat heater. I’ve never seen one or heard about one so I can’t say much. It must be 6 volt because the cj2a is 6volt. It was mounted under the passenger seat where the tool compartment is located. The metals bent and I couldn’t tell if the coil holds or if the fan motor turns. This could be a cool add on for someone that’s looking for a rarity.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $25/each.
Someone probably can use these.
“Selling 3 16” wheels that came off a 1947 CJ2A. They are in real nice condition and only need a blast and paint. They fit all the CJ’s from the CJ2A’s up to the CJ’s until 1971. So if you have a Willys these are real nice and are the “rivet” style.
Asking 25 each. New Re-po’s are over 100 each.”
Mark just listed these parts:
1) 16″ Wheels from CJ-2A in Moab, UT $250 http://www.jeeptruck.com/mjs/sale/adsp488/adsp488.html
2) T-98 Tranny in Moab, UT $200

(02/02/2012) It sounds like there are all kinds of parts.
“Recently acquired a semi trailer full of used and NOS jeep parts from a closed down ‘chuck lewis motors’ jeep dealership/mechanics shop. I have been told this dealership closed down in the 90’s and all the parts were consolidated into two semi trailers…of which then was consolidated into this one trailer. I was in college at the time I started working on the partial/crude inventory list but I think it gives a good idea of what is in there. I would guess the inventory list (over 2000 parts) is a mere 50% of the actual entire inventory. At first I planned on selling each part…but as you can see with over 2000 parts already on the inventory list…this would be a full time job. I am looking to sell the entire inventory. This find is in fact a gold mine of NOS willy’s and older jeep parts (pre 80’s) there is also a large collection of used hard to find body parts, engines, axles, drivelines, drivetrain parts. I am available to discuss any and all details with those of you whom are interested in making an offer and whom would like to meet and see the parts. The trailer is located in Laramie, Wyoming at AAA Recycling and Salvage. Keep in mind, I am very aware of the high value of these parts and of the risk the buyer is taking….I would like to see these parts get to someone who will keep them in circulation instead of being crushed as scrap. Experts who have looked at the inventory have estimated over $80,000 in retail from these hard to find items. I am also open to a partial purchase of any combination of items. I do not have the time to sell these one by one, my loss is your gain, $18000 or best offer takes this inventory. More pictures available upon request.”
Need DJ-5 or postal jeep parts? You might try this resource I just stumbled across.
This looks like a great price for a never used CJ-7 top.
“Soft top for CJ 7 years 1982 to 1986 – new never used – sold jeep
