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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 $3999
(04/02/2012) Some mods on this. It looks solid.
“willys jeep has buick V6 225, muncie 4 speed, custom mounted warn 8274 winch 8000 lb , saganaw steering
interior has stock front seats ,has non stock rear seat, tilt steering
runs and drives good current tags, good solid jeep == same owner 25 years”
UPDATE: Was priced at $600. This has a PTO. **SOLD**
(04/29/2012) The body has been patched, but this still may be restorable.
“1946 Willys CJ2A, the first year for the CJ Jeep. Mostly original body with lots of rust and patches. L134 engine, does crank over, but needs head gasket (antifreeze in oil). Brakes and clutch not working. My grandfather owned this Jeep since the mid-70’s. I got it running about 12 years ago, but run the clutch out and parked it in the shed. I have reupholstered seat cushions and backs with original springs (done back in the 70’s but never installed). the aluminum top was winter top and I have the doors for it but no end gate. Windshield frame is gone. Transmission seems to be fine. Tires hold air but not roadworthy.
It has had a hard life. Restore or part it. I can provide more pictures upon request.”
This might be worth a look. The seller is in the middle of wiring brake lights.
“i have a 1953 willys CJ3B i am asking 3200 for it , the price is a little negotiable its in good shape for its age and everything is still all origianl except the wheels and tires i have on it. i have put new seats started wireing for tale lights but ran out of time to rebuild it the way it needs to be so im trying to sell it.

This has a funky windshield.
“***if you send email asking “do you still have it” or something similar I will assume its spam/scam and will not reply. When you email me be specific about the item.***
Selling my 1948 Willys Jeep. No time to work on it. Sold as is. You must arrange to transport it . Asking $1800 but will entertain all offers.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800.
Per Bill’s observation, this appears to be a M-38 with DJ-5 grille and CJ-2A windshield. Pictures are 7 years old.
“Rare 1947 Willys Jeep, runs good, needs brake fluid, good project jeep, title in hand.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800
(04/05/2010) It sounds like there are some good parts. This might have the offset 30 spline Dana rear.
“GREAT PROJECT CAR. Price negotiable. I have some new parts ready to go on including a complete, new “Painless Wiring Kit”, keyed Jeep tilt steering, 4 YJ springs and 2 Trailmaster coil over shocks. Motor not stock, in good shape, runs. Has tow bar. Has Dana 44 one piece axles. This a project vehicle.”
There have been a variety of minor mods.
“Rare green jeep in great condition the approx year 1946. Come and kick the tires … fun to drive around. Civilian CJ”

UPDATE: Was $4500. **SOLD**
This has been painted within the last year, as it was listed last summer painted red. It also has the M-38 body rather than a CJ-2A.
“Up for sale is a 1946 Willys Jeep CJ2A with a big block 351 ford engine. This is a running and driving vehical. The Ignition is all MSD from the distributor to the ignition box to the plug wires. This Jeep has Dana axles and is geared to go through anything. This is mainly an offroad unit but can be drove on the streets.”
Dan spotted this one. With a rebuilt motor and tranny, this might be a good utility driver.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Last listed at $4200.
(08/28/2012) The seller doesn’t seem to know whether this was a real Fire Truck or not, but probably wouldn’t be hard to verify.
“I think it belonged to the fire dept. from 1975 untill 2006 then it was sold to a privet owner 2006 untill 2012 This jeep runs good but the motor has a pecking noise the jeep comes with a spare replacement motor this jeep is very solid one small rust spot on drivers side front fender.”
