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 .
It’s only been sitting for twenty years. Perfect lawn ornament. I wonder if it was complete before, or after the fire?
“this jeep was in a fire about 20 years or so and has sat . the jeep was complete wen it was parked. call after 6pm thank you.”

Looks solid. Looks like it has a replacement body and windshield.

“ Here is a barn fresh 46 Willys just out of long term storage. I was told it was restored by the previous owner in the late 70s or early 80s then used some before being stored away in a barn. I dont know a lot about these Jeeps and will describe it the best I can. It runs and drives nice. The body is all steel nice and straight with no rot anywhere. Someone told me it may be a replacement body.
The top is a Best Top brand with no rips or tears. Doors and windows are in great shape also. The seats are in excellent condition with no rips,tears or wear. They flip up for access to the rear compartment. All the gauges, windshield wipers and horn are in working order although the horn button is missing. The 4 cylinder engine runs excellent with no noise or smoke. It has an electric fuel pump and the electrical system has been converted to 12 volt. The trans shifts smooth and the clutch doesnt slip or chatter, all 4wd components are working as they should.
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was on eBay
(05/20/2014) It appears to have a GPW body and a Bobcat fiberglass hood.

“im getting ready to move so looking at potentially selling my project willys cj 2a
I have a lot invested in time and money getting it to where it is but it still needs some work. I just would rather some one who loves these as much as me finish her off and drive her then me put her in storage but if I don’t get any serious interest I will store it till I get a new garage space so please no stupid low ball offers.
UPATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
The windshield on this 2A was a surprise. That could be a pretty rare windshield, though it appears to be a CJ-3A rather than a M-38 windshield. This also has a rear PTO.

Given the parts, there appears to be value here.
“2 jeeps one is a cj2a and the other is a cj3a 1940s to 50s era. Both are pretty complete but are very rusty. Drivetrains are both there but engines may be stuck. The cj3a also has the PTO that comes out the back. Also have and extra motor and trans and a couple boxes of misc. parts, There are no titles for these so are being sold with a bill of sale as parts vehicles.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000.
(05/17/2014) It appears pretty solid.
