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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
Here’s an interesting jeep. It has an unusual paint job, an unusual roll cage and unusual rear lights.
“SELLING MY 1947 WILLIES JEEP. HAS HAD A LOT OF CUSTOM WORK DONE TO IT AS WELL AS NORMAL REPAIRS. NEW INTAKE AND CARBURATOR. NEW FRONT BRAKES(DRUM STYLE) NEW CLUTCH NEW SEATS NEW STEREO JUST A FUN LITTLE PROJECT THAT I DO NOT CURRENTLY HAVE TIME TO FINISH.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $700.
(09/05/2012) This was a 1945 GPW, but it now has a CJ-2A body and some other mods, including some Desert Dogs.
“$700 OBO. The value here is in the parts. It does not run and will take a lot to get it running.
It pretty much needs everything gone through or rebuilt to get it street worthy again.
The Jeep is titled as a 45 Ford Jeep, but it doesn’t look like there is much left of a 45.
Body is 2A, frame is 48 or newer.
This was going to be a project but just too much for me to tackle. The motor has two cylinders that are rusty and I don’t have the
time or resources to pull the motor and rebuild it. There are some good parts on this Jeep that someone will want.
MB Grill
T 84 Transmission (Needs Rebuilt)
WW2 water pump undrilled
WW2 carb (maybe)
Buyer must take it all. I will not part it out. Trades considered, unless I get too many calls with people offering me garbage…..
Call or text Dan at five zero three – 380 – nine three six six”

UPDATE: Robin took my advice, looked at this, and bought it. It’s a good looking jeep that just needs some hat channel work. More pics here.
“Very clean and original.Drives great.Newer top and tires.Clean title.Give me a call.Asking $5000.”
It needs wheel cylinders. It looks like it needs rear lights, too.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000
(10/10/2012) This has some nice rims and wheel well extensions. The dash and transmission cover are unusual.

This has a buy-it-now price of $5800. It appears in good shape and has a rear PTO.
“1946 Jeep CJ2A for sale.
This vehicle is in excellent condition. It is driven often. I
It has a newly rebuilt and rebored engine with new pistons and crank. All grease has been recently changed and the breaks have been gone through. It has been converted from a 6 volt to a 12 volt electrical system. We have owned this Jeep since 1961. I am a mechanic and have stayed on top of the maintenance.
It is a fun vehicle to own and drive.
It comes with a bikini style top and a tow bar. There is a roll bar that I removed that is also included. There is a pto, drive shaft and gearbox which are also included.
Everything on this Jeep works. It is an attention getter! You will enjoy driving this.”

UPDATE: Was listed at $3500. **SOLD**
This appears to have a replacement body. It includes an overdrive. This looks like a good price. There have been modifications on the front end. The grill looks M-38ish, too. The windshield from a M-38.
“Im selling my 1947 Willys jeep. It has a buick v-6,overdrive,complete soft top with doors,tow bar. $3500.00 call”
This still needs some work, but looks like it has a good foundation.
“This is a 1946 Willys model CJ2A universal.
It starts (with a jump) and runs good. The body is solid now but it has had some minor rust repair. This would make an easy restoration to get the body back to stock or leave it and drive it the way it is.
It has the correct wheels and NDT tires which are in excellent shape.
It DOES need some work though. It has no brakes, it should be rewired (relatively cheap and easy to replace the complete harness), needs battery plus other minor stuff.
I hold a clear and current transferable ownership in my name.
A little negotiable, but only in person.
Call during daylight hours only.
check the zip for location.
No text.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Were $6000.
Put back on the original wheels, and this would look pretty stock.
“A true barn find! I got this off the original owners granddaughter. Was always stored indoors. It runs and drives great. Have the original wheels too. All new paint, weather stripping, gauges, 12V electrical, tires and wheels new, 134 motor. Everyone loves this from kids to the old guys. A real classic. $8,000.00 OBO May trade for 2000 or newer HD Fatboy”
UPDATE: **SOLD** $1500.
(09/27/2012) This appears in good shape. It might be a good value.
“So here it goes. I have decided to put my beloved ’52 Willys up for sale. I have 3 little kids and I just don’t have the time needed to get it perfect. My game plan has been to replace and fix parts when I can, and it has most of the hard work done. I have not started it. I was going to get it 95% there (for cost reasons) and have it towed to a Willy’s expert to get the engine dialed in perfect since I am not a mechanic. It has the original L134 4 cyl engine, T90 transmition, Dana 18 transfer case, everything else is original 6V.
Here is a list of the new parts I have added (at quite a cost I might add!!)
-new distributor cap, points, plugs, wires
-new Oil Filter canister (that was missing on most of these Jeeps)
-new belt
-new hoses
-new gas tank
-new gas line
-new fuel sender unit
Changed all of the oil and fluids”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3300.
This includes an overdrive.
“runs great ,power steering,great tires ,full roll cage,full soft top,bikini top,small block ford 3 speed w/overdrive,powerlock rear,c.b. spare tire/gas can rack etc.very reliable”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4499.
(08/23/2012) This looks like a real nice rig.
“Awesome 1947 Willys CJ2A, desert tan with newish exterior and interior (zolatone) paint – always garaged. Original drivetrain, strong flathead four, new T90 with rebuilt transfer case, rebuilt steering gear and new tires. Clear title”
