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 .

“Not mine. However I do transport cars across the country so if someone wanted to make a deal on this, I could probably transport it for you. If you need me to do a video chat or check it out for you private message me. Located in Lowell Vt. Driver floor seems to have a couple small holes.”
Lots of updates and a Bobcat hood on this flattie.

Little known about this 2A, but it seems to have potential. I don’t see any obvious rust.

“Listing for family. 1947 CJ2A needs a new home. Very little is known about it. Looks to be mostly complete and appears that it was driven in to the shop where it currently resides. Is currently in Republic.”
Listed as a 1952, the yellow jeep appears to be a 1946 CJ-2A, given the three data plates on the dash. I believe the yellow jeep has a Koenig half cab, while the other jeep has a sears-branded full cab.

This is listed as a 1954, but it’s clearly has a CJ-2A body. Unclear how much value is here, as this doesn’t run. But, included in the photos is what appears to be a Script GPW. I’m not sure if that’s included in the price or not as it is not mentioned.

“It’s got a nice cab,roll bar, and tow hitch. The motor is a ford 260 v8. With an overdrive Its been sitting a long time. Back is full of carburetors and other parts”
And the GPW:

Listed as a 1942, odds are it is a CJ-2A (appears to have the dash ignition holes).

Does not run, has an overhead valve motor in it that’s stuck. What’s neat is that it has a super clean body, no major rust at all. Was going to pair this with my other CJ2A but just don’t think I’m going to get to it anytime soon”

================
Originally published May 5, 2023:
Merlin mentioned this vehicle (and article), called the Sterand Loco, in a Facebook post. Various sourced indicate it was built in 1902, but he felt it looked more like a 1920s build. I agree with him, that it is a cool car, but I am not steeped enough in early car history to know for sure when it might have been built.
After some internet searches, I found the engine was consistent with 1902 (a Rutenber 4 cylinder engine). However, after Googling and checking newspaper articles prior to 1920, I could not find what I felt was a definitive source for the date of the vehicle’s creation (no info on why it is called a Sterand or any promotion surrounding it’s inception). The most I could find was a postcard (from this website) that discussed what the article stated.
Still, it’s a cool car.
UPDATE: **SOLD** for $14,250 (thanks Tom)
Here’s a nice looking CJ-2A that is at $11,000 with only 3+ hours to go. Thanks to Blaine for spotting it.
https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1946-willys-cj-2a-4/
“This 1946 Willys CJ-2A is finished in green over tan cloth upholstery and is powered by a 134ci inline-four mated to a three-speed manual transmission and a two-speed transfer case. Additional equipment includes yellow-painted 16” steel wheels, a full-size spare, a fold-down windshield, a single-barrel carburetor, a rear bench seat, and front lap belts. The truck was repainted under previous ownership and was acquired by the selling dealer in March 2023. This Willys is now offered in Florida at no reserve with Georgia registration.”
I am taking the weekend off. I had hoped to take the Tour Jeep up to the Moonshiners race in Glenwood, WA, this weekend to share the FC with folks. However, I am not feeling the best, so I’ve decided to get some rest. Meanwhile, it seems one of our cows is showing signs of giving birth soon (we’d given up, thinking she wasn’t going to have a calf this year), so that’s a surprise!
Have a great weekend!
I haven’t seen one of these for sale for several years (at least).
