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 .
Given we can see the cement floor through the gas inlet, I’d say this may need some floor work.

“Tub, front fenders, windshield”

(10/03/2019) Looks like there’s value here.
“Complete 1947 Willy CJ2A body…Tub, fenders, hood, grill, tailgate…Needs tin work, far from perfect, but a good solid start….$600. for everything…or swap for MB/GPW parts.”

(08/16/2019) This body has had lots of work done to it.

“During a frame off restoration we realized the body we have does not match the frame. The body (tub, fenders, hood, front and rear bumper) is for a ’48 vintage CJ-2A. Fenders and hood are in excellent shape. Hood has a customized box that was installed to accommodate the non-stock (for the body) engine. Tub is in average condition. Body mount channels on the bottom have some wastage and will need to be replaced. The storage bin under the passenger seat is missing. Otherwise, repairs have been made to previous wastage. We need to make room for the new body.
Entire body was on an operational chassis and was driven. As-is, it is functional. Restoration will require attention in the above areas.
I also have the front grill and windshield. Am not sure if I’m going to repurpose those but if not, they will be included with this body.”
It’s been cut up, but it would still make a fine race or offroad body. Fiberglass shells are often used for race jeeps around the PNW.

“Fiberglass Willys tub has brake master cylinder petals and steering column was going to use this and make a rat rod jeep but I Lost interest in it so this one needs to go”

“1946 WILLYS JEEP STEEL TUB. VERY GOOD COND. WERE TOLD IT WILL FIT FROM 45 THRU 60. WITH SOME ADAPTINGM MAYBE.. yOU REALLY SHOULD SEE THIS ONE
IF YOU NEED A GOOD USED TUB”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
This deal should work for someone. A couple extra holes provides ventilation, lol.
“New reproduction Willy’s CJ-2A body tub. The previous owner attempted to mount the tub onto a CJ-3A frame and therefore drilled and cut holes in the floorpans / dash to try and make everything work. (CJ3A frame is longer than a CJ2A) Go check the price of a new reproduction body tub (plus what it costs to ship) and then come buy mine. $1500 obo. Other Willys parts available, specifically early CJ’s stuff.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $300.
This looks to be a good price. There are similar Bobcat-style wide-lipped versions of this body, but the steps were different. So, I’m not sure who the manufacturer of this body was.
“Fiber glass body including front fenders and hood. I know it fits a 1947 Willie’s Jeep but in May fit others.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $200.
Maybe someone can use this?
“Willys tub. Not sure of year. Rough. What you see is all I have. Floor rust.”
Includes the front clip.
