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 .
Sort of runs. Lots of diamond plating added. It’s missing knobs on the shift levers.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer
This appears to have a MB/GPW tub and running gear. It’s also got the custom angled dash found mostly in California.
“I have a 47 jeep that I got a while a go I like to sell or trade the jeep is been sitting for a few years but it’s got tons of potential seems to be the military type I’m not sure it’s got a V8 chevy engine on it that turns freely however I don’t know if it will run. If you want a restore it or are restoring one this one will be good! It is a project!!! I like to trade for guns,tools? I don’t know or make a decent offer!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $600
It’s a project with surface rust at the very least.
“I’ve got a barn find 1947 (according to the S/N) Willis CJ-2A that needs a new home. It will need a full restoration or would be great for parts for that CJ you are building now. The 4cyl engine does turn over but will need a full rebuild, the transmission and transfer case are still in the vehicle and appear to work but I’m sure they need new seals and to be cleaned up. You will want to buy a new tub as this one is rusty. The hood, tailgate, front fenders and grill are all usable. I do not have a title, the former owner got it out of Louisiana and could not find the title when I bought it from him.
I have the seats, windshield frame and all the other parts to assemble the Jeep loaded on my trailer but not shown in the pictures below.
This is a project and will need a complete rebuild before it can go anywhere. Take a look at the pictures and see if you are ready to take this project on. If you are reading this, it is still for sale.”
Only has 136K miles! lol.
“This is an original 1948 Jeep CJ2a with only 136k original miles,….this jeep has not run since 1990 and needs a complete overhaul, the body has rust and repairs and the engine although not frozen hasn’t been started is 25 years…tires are dry rotted but hold air..the jeep is complete, all there including the windshield that the glass is cracked, but the frame is not bent, cracked or broken and has never been repaired…..clear Texas title,”

All original? I think not. This has a CJ-5 body melded to the rear of the body.

There’s some value in the rims at the very least.
