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 .
(10/23/2012) This might or might not be the correct photograph. This seller has this jeep for sale in June. I’m assuming its the same jeep for sale, but I might be wrong.
“Partially restored CJ2A Jeep. Over $3000. in receipts. ”
“Selling my totally STAINLESS STEEL 1942 Willies body style Jeep, manufactured by Ford. This vehicle has been totally restored from top to bottom. It is one of a kind, there is no other like it. Engine is a 302 V8, transmission is a C4 automatic, Edelborck intake/carb/valve covers. Rear axel is a Dana 44 and front axel is Dana 25. All Rancho suspension and many more features. Feel free to call or text me with any questions. Must see to believe.”
“Alas, I realize that I am never gonna do anything with “The General”. Time to let it go.
It runs well, and drives OK, but needs TLC. Worst issue at the moment is a hole in the top from a falling tree last winter, but rust in spots, and many layers of patches and paint. Artistic, almost. Mostly original except for a 12V conversion, and an aftermarket plastic gas tank. $1000, and you can drive it home. (If you’re not in a hurry to get there 🙂
Best way to reach me is via email, but you can try my home phone: 719 481-4262. Ignore the greeting, but do leave a message. Will post some fotos later today.
Here come fotos. That stack of steel wheels go with it, as do the doors. There is also a box of misc new stuff; some ignition parts, some seals and bearings, maybe a tie-rod end, and an electric fuel pump. And I neglected to get fotos of it, but there is a home-made spare tire/jerrycan rack for the back, and I think a couple cans for it. No guarantee on the jerrycans usefulness, if I can even find ’em. I also have a couple service manuals for it.
