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 .
“1946 jeep willys with 1957 corvette motor in it. we have ran motor suffix numbers and it dose come back to 1957 corvette. jeep body is in good condition with no dents in it and it has new tires. motor runs great and has alot of power. make offer or will trade for rhino or other side by side.”
(05/09/2014) Two interesting things about this CJ-2A caught my eye:
1) This has the hood gutter attached to the hood hinge under the hood.
2) The front bumper connects like a 3A rather than a 2A.
I’m wondering if this is a very late 1948 CJ-2A or a rare 1949 CJ-2A. The serial number might be worth a look on this one. According to an old post by Bill Norris, the gutter was standard on CJ-2As after 193800. After #215649 the bumper was changed to a CJ-3A design (if I am interpreting this page correctly).
“This is a 1949 Willy’s Jeep. The body is in great shape, straight with no major rust. The paint is faded in many places. The jeep runs well with the original flat 4 engine. The electrical system has been upgraded to a twelve volt system. An under dash heater and electric windsheild wiper have been installed. Please call/text/email for more information.”
“V8 small block, new paint, new wheels and tires, new holly off road carb, new wiring, new hubs, no rust, cb with speaker, hand throttle, LED rock lights, HID head lights. led tail lights. I have a new aluminum radiator and shroud that need to be installed. super clean jeep 3133998″
(03/31/2014) This has a combat rim. It still needs some work.
“I pulled this CJ out of the bushes 2 winters ago and brought her back to life. The L-head 4 cylinder purrs and all running gear works. Everything is original except for the S10 bench seat and Wrangler bikini top. New parts: alternator, battery, brake shoes, one new hub, new master cylinder and all new slave cylinders and new brake lines, tires good with all new inner tubes,new window glass. There is no rust anywhere. Years ago someone cut rust out of the passenger side of tub and riveted in some steel. I stayed with that style on the driver side (ratjeep style). Original color was green then repainted brown and now has a nice green/brown patina finish. A great rig to cruise around the lake or your big back yard or in town. What doesn’t work? The only gauge that works is the ammeter. I pulled the top off the transmission and it is solid,but the syncro’s don’t work (double clutcher). The engine smokes at start up but the compression is perfect. I assume the valve guides are worn. Leave this little Willys as is or great resto project.”
“This is my toy. It is a 1946 willys cj2a. we re built the jeep frame up last winter and recently put willys jeep truck axles under it. it goes every where I ask it to. It has brand new brakes front and rear brand new brake lines and hoses. It has the original 134 flathead 4cyl in it, plenty atrong and doesn’t leak a drop. Along with the t-90 tranny an dana 18 twin stick transfer case. All lights work on the jeep, and brand new 1/2 in lift shackles. It also has a 1 1/2 in body lift on it as we’ll. The rear axle is a dana 53 and the front is a dana 25. 5:38 gears in axles.The tires are 31×13.5-r15 super swamper sx, with white spokes. The rear axle is also welded and open in the front. Has a flowmaster on it and it sounds good. Everything works on the jeep and out performs most jeeps this age. Paint was put on few weeks back. Needs a master cylinder (50 bucks) so brakes are spongy. We’ll taken care of and did not have a rough life. Fourwheeled, but not hard. Only trading it cuz I want to go bigger. Has brand new starter, alternator and brand new gas tank and fuel pump. Runs like a top. Lookin to trade for a cj5 or cj7 or a wrangler. Anything lifted an built for wheeling. Let me know what you have. Thanks. Trade only.”
“1946 Willys CJ2A Runs well, needs a little starter work, other than that in great running shape. Frame is great (no patches).
