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 seems worth a look. It has some useful updates.

(03/05/2024) The seller is correct; this is a classic PNW build, with the Desert Dogs, a V6, the diamond plate corners, the diamond plate side pieces, the Bobcat Hood, along with other updates.

“The time has come for me to sell my 1946 CJ2(ish) little beast. It’s sporting a Buick 198 fireball, t90, bobcat hood, Cadillac telescopic column, rather beat up 64 corvette seats, full set of Desert Dogs, ect ect. The top is pretty beat up but keeps the weather out about as well as you could hope. All and all a great example of a classic PNW jeep. It runs and drives but could certainly use a tune up as I’ve not been driving it much at all (hence the sale) Mainly looking for cash but could be open to trades for a newer jeep that would be more daily driver friendly”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $5500.

(12/28/2023) Seller says it has rust, but I can’t tell how bad it is.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1085701379522460/
“I have a 1946 Willy’s flat fender with a dauntless V6, 3 speed transmission split shift transfer case.. tires r good, runs great. I’ve driven it from Delhi to calaveras co and back with no problems. It does need paint and has some rust, I started patching rust already in the main spots but the salt from the Idaho roads really took a toll on the body. But it’s still a cool jeep. Nothing a little paint can’t cover up 😂. Also needs seats, I have a back seat but need front seats.. also have a hard top for it.. I hate to sell it but things got bad for me real quick and need the money.. I’m asking $4000- and probably won’t go down from that price. May be open to trade. Lmk. What u have. Please no junk. I want Something running. Jeep is registered as well”

Brake cylinders, tuneup, new fuel cell installed all fresh undercoating, new seats and carpet, gauges and wiring. Tires have fresh tread.”
UPDTE: Price dropped to $13,250.
(09/11/2023) I don’t recognize the hardtop, but it looks like a nice one. It seems a conglomeration of a Kelly (line under door window and the door latches) + a Meyer (door window shape and possible roof shape) + a Koenig (door shape). I suspect it is custom, but if Meyer *had* made a flat fender top, I’d think it would look something like this.

“Sierra Classics Imports is proud to present this exceptionally mean 1942 Willys. The off-road machine is finished in a nice red paint with chrome diamond plating covering much of the car. The 283 cubic inch motor came from a 1961 Corvette and sounds loud and mean with the power to back it up. The 283 is linked up with a 4 speed manual transmission with Worn overdrive. The car has 11 inch drum brakes all the way around stopping 10×15 inch wheels and 33 inch tires. The Willys also has tilt steering as well as a full top a new radiator and a new water pump. This is an excellent Willys and would be a hard charging fun toy for anyone who wants to go off road with some oomf. Give us a call if you have any questions!”
