About eWillys
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.
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 .
(01/19/2013) This has some interesting rims. You might check to see if this has a title before driving out.
“THIS IS FOR A 1948 CJ2A RANCH JEEP. HAS BEEN USED ON THE RANCH FOR 40 YEARS. A NEW CRATED F – HEAD ENGINE WAS PUT IN THE JEEP YEARS AGO. EXTRA PARTS ARE 2 TOW BARS, GEAR BOXES, 4 USED TIRES ON RIMS, AND OTHER MISCELLANEOUS PARTS.”
“This 1947 Jeep Willys was purchased in 1986 and has no title. it does however have a colorado VIN inspection and was cleared. it can be titled in any state … just needs some paperwork done. the VIN inspection and a bill of sale which i will provide. it was used very little for hunting on private roads so it wasnt titled in colorado. it was a project my grandfather wanted to do 25 years ago. it runs great has a Buick V6 231. it has chevrolet steering. the brakes work … just need to be bled as it has been sitting in a shed for some years now but i have been running it and with some TLC it will be a very nice vehicle again. we have a spare tire for it but it was flat so it is at the repair shop now being fixed.”
This appears in great shape, though the pics aren’t the best.
“1948 jeep willy asking 6500 obo it bin all restord and gone tho run and drive great if you wont to know more call 707 954 5845 ask for larry..thank,s for looking”
“1947 Willy’s CJ2A “flat fender” Jeep. 4 cylinder with 3 speed transmission and Dana 18 – 2 stick hi/low transfer case. Lock out hubs, almost new NDT tires, new gas tank, recently replaced the differential third member, 12-volt system with alternator, tow bar and extra rear seat. Very little rust, very restorable or run as is. $4,000 OBO.”
I’m gonna guess that was a VEC CJ-2A body. It’s rough.
“1956 Willy’s Jeep. Has all the parts on it, except the steering wheel. Would be a great project, motor needs to be gone through. Bought it for $3,000 for my son, he went with a truck instead now I need it gone. Willing to take a lose on it, $2,000 is a great deal.”
“I have two 1946 willys jeeps i would like to sell. One jeep runs the other doesn’t my original plans were to restore the one that runs with parts from the other. They are both 1946 cj2a willys jeeps one runs and has a bad body and the other one does not run and has a decent body. i want $1800 im not dead firm on my price but i do know what their worth”
The seller claims the only body mod is the hood scoop, but the drain hole has been filled and the bow holders removed. I’m only being picky, because the seller wants a lot for it. This does have the square bow holder windshield brackets, three data plates, and the full floating rears. This must have been a really early VEC. It only has 1 hood latch.
“THIS MOSTLY ORIGINAL JEEP FEATURES AN UPGRADED, LATER MODEL JEEP 4 CYLINDER OHV ENGINE IN PLACE OF ITS ORIGINAL “GO DEVIL” FLAT 4. THE MORE POWERFUL ENGINE CAME WITH AN IMPROVED CARBURETOR ( REQUIRING A HOOD SCOOP-ITS ONLY BODY MOD). THE RED EXTERIOR BODY IS ALL ORIGINAL. THE INTERIOR HAS THE ORIGINAL BUCKET SEATS COVERED IN BAMBOO VINYL. ALL THE GUAGES ARE INSTALLED AND WORKING PROPERLY,AS WELL AS ALL LIGHTS WORK. HAS AN OPTIONAL FACTORY HEATER INSTALLED. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM HAS BEEN UPGRADED FROM 6V TO 12V. THE STEEL WHEELS ARE AFTERMARKET AND WEAR 245X15 OFF-ROAD TRACTION TIRES WITH DECENT TREAD. HAVE THE ORIGINAL 16 INCH WHEELS AND TIRES WHICH WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE SALE.THIS RARE JEEP RUNS,DRIVES,SHIFTS AND STOPS LIKE IT SHOULD. HAS A BIMINI TOP TO KEEP THE SUN AT BAY. THIS JEEP IS A BLAST TO DRIVE,EASY OF FUEL,GETS LOTS OF LOOKS AND ITS READY TO GO! VERY DEPENDABLE-STARTS RIGHT UP,AND WOULD MAKE A GREAT DAILY DRIVER. I HAVE 2 OF THESE JEEPS…THIS RED 1946 AND A MINT GREEN 1949 MODEL(PICTURES BELOW). GREEN JEEP HAS ORIGINAL WINCH AND TOW BAR.”
This is a nice looking VEC. It no longer has the column shift.
