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 on eBay.
The pics show the looks very straight.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
This looks like a pretty original CJ-3B in good shape.
“1953 CJ3B first year for the overhead valve engine. Engine rebuilt 3 years ago – minimal rust – runs great! “
Here’s a potential buyer.
“Wanted Jeep CJ3B 1953 era High Hood in good condition/stock Please call David 530 682 0639 or e-mail annrai2003@yahoo.com.”
This might be a fine parts jeep at the very least. I can’t tell if all the parts are really there or not.
“1942 Willys military jeep. I took this jeep apart because I was going to restore it frame up. It is taken apart in main pieces but all of the main parts are there and most of the small pieces. Motor is frozen from weather. All is inside except the tub which is not in good shape but can restored by someone with time and know how. I gave up on the project because it is to big for me and I just bought another jeep. Asking $700.00. Jason- 360-278-3470.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
It’s got some floor rust and the body has some dings.
“1947 WILLYS MODEL 2J2A -all original except 12 volt conversion. Solid body and frame but not with out some rust as pictured. 12 volt system all lights and gauges in working order. Original motor in good working order . Working 4 wheel drive with locking hubs. Tires on vehicle and spare in good shape. Extras included: two tires on rims, jerry can holder, tow bar.”

“47 willys rock crawler, chevy 350, turbo 350 tranny, dana 30 t case, dana 44 frount, 14 bolt int the rear, 9000 lb worn wintch, rollcage, 5 point harnes, truck advenger carb great for 4×4, 10in lift, 36 in super swampers 80% tread, lockers frount and rear, 5 13 gears, need to sell fast,”
This runs, drives and has a good body (according to the seller). This might not be a bad deal. It is still a project. I suspect it needs more than just the lights wired and paint.
“Excellent example of a 1948 Jeep Willys. It has been converted to a 12 volt system. Body is in good condition, runs and drives good. Interior is in good condition. It has only been driven a few miles as an occasionally. The jeep has great floors is amazingly solid. This rare CJ2A with a M-38 hard top. i have pics can send to your email and phone. cant get the to download from my phone.”
And the Jeep loses.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay

UPDATE: Status unknown.
I love this jeep. It’s running on makeshifts, prayers, and desperation. Just look at the battery location (below pic).
“WILLYS CJ2A JEEP. RUNS SMOOTH AND QUIET! NO BRAKES EXCEPT EMERGENCY BRAKE. PLOWED JEST MY DRIVEWAY FOR THE LAST EIGHT YEARS UNTILL FRONT FRAME BROKE,SEE PICTURES.

This old GPW appears in good shape. Lots of pics to review.
“I am selling my WW2 1943 Ford GPW Jeep. I really don’t want to sell it but its time for some of them to go. This jeep is a really nice one for never being restored.

UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was priced at $1700. It appears complete.
“Call for specs & details.”
UPDATE: Pictures added and price dropped.
This might be a good price, though I can’t tell what the rust situation is.

It’s a running CJ-3A. I can’t tell what the rust situation is. It could be a very good price.
“Willys CJ-3A with title. Drive it home today for $1450.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000
“Good start for jeep project. All original except is 12volt now. Motor runs, but needs rebuilt. Very little rust. I am interested in trading for running 1981-1985 Toyota 4×4, or Samurai, or VW bug. I like the old jeep, but need something that is reliable for my kid. I am not interested in any other vehicles unless they are compareable to what I have stated”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500

This one could use some work.
“1946 jeep willys, 350 corvette eng doubble hump heads, needs work, ran when parked, came from climax mine in leadville, fun little 4×4, can send other pics, $2000 obo”
There’s been some body work if this is truly a CJ-2A body. There was no description of any significance. You can view more pics and contact information here.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
“Excellent example of a 1946 Jeep Willys. It has been converted to a 12 volt system. Body is in good condition, runs and drives good. Interior is in good condition. It has only been driven a few miles as an occasional Sunday drive. The jeep used to have the red carpet in the back, I took it off, and the floor is amazingly solid. This rare CJ2A is currently registered and driven, also comes with custom tow bar.”
This looks to be a good price. This might have been one of the ’48s with the spare on the driver’s side and the bow top holders on the passenger side.
“1948 Willys Jeep CJ2A. Runs great; Low time on rebuilt engine; New brakes; Reupholstered seats. 715-822-8394”
UPDATE: Pics now provided.
“I have a CJ3A with an M38 body (early repro) that has been in dry storage for 6 yrs. It is in mid resto. The running gear is complete and completely redone. All new leaf springs with xtra leaf, clutch, exhaust, brake lines and hoses, every gasket and seal for engine trans and xfer case. The frame was completely sandblasted and repainted with new rear bumper and all new bolts where necessary. The body is sitting on the frame, not mounted. I have MANY new parts and EXTRAS, all pieces to finish the job with exception of a wiring harness. I will include the original Koenig hardtop. It needs some work to be nice but it is complete and functions properly. I would need notice to show. As I said it is in storage. I can be reached at 603-783-1209.”
