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 pretty solid.
“1946 CJ2A Willys Jeep. A frame off amateur restoration about ten years ago with a lot of new parts added in that time frame. The electrical system and starter has been converted to a 12 volt system. The jeep was inspected last year and drove last year. I purchased a CJ7 recently and need to get rid of this one for a reasonable price. $4600 or best reasonable offer. Email is the best contact method.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4200
(10/04/2011) Sounds like it has plenty of power. It could really use the back cage braces though (for my taste anyway).
“1945 Willys, new paint its straight, 300hp 350chev, truck trans with granny low, overdrive, posi rear later willys axle, lockrite front, hardtop, needs some completion, may trade for chevelle project vehicles”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
(11/06/08) I’m really surprised that a jeep like this doesn’t have a roll bar or a cage, given the extras it does have. It’s also rare to see one with four terra tires on it, though the left front one looks a bit low. Given the body is rough, I suspect the price will drop.

One of the updates in the May newsletter from the Bantam Festival folks is that there will be more food. Since I like food, I have to say I’m all in favor of that!
You can read more on the latest at the Bantam Jeep Festival Site
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was auctioned.
This is an auction that includes a variety of military items owned by former Ohio State Rep Richard Rench.
“15 En Road Norwalk, OH 44857 Auction Starts 10AM Preview @ 9am. We will be auctioning off the possessions of Richard Rench former 10 yr.Ohio State Rep.& Ohio State Trooper. Rich was quite the collector and owned many types of one”

No pics of this jeep.

Rob forwarded me the jeep below. It’s an odd melding of a CJ-2A and a Wagon. I’d love to get a closer look to see how various problems were solved.
This jeep is one of several jeeps in different conditions being auctioned, though nothing is in amazing condition. Tools and other vehicles will also be auctioned, including a deuce and a half that looks to me (not being an expert) in very good condition.
The auction takes place on June 16th, 2012, at a place tbd. You can learn more about the auction by Fenbert Auction Services and see the other vehicles at here.
Here’s the oddball CJ-2A/Panel Wagon hybrid:

I’m guessing this doesn’t have the stock motor? This looks solid though.

“Willys jeep 1952 FLAT FENDER came from the chilliwack museam a few years ago, runs great”

The seller seems to want this to be a 1941, but the official GPW serial numbers begin in January of 1942.

It runs. And stops, too. This appears to have a L head if I’m not mistaken.
“For sale: 1955 Willys CJ3. RUNS!!!! 4X4,TRANS,BRAKES,HIGH RANGE AND LOW RANGE ALL WORK GREAT!”
This needs work, but looks to have good potential for a modified truck.
