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 .

(12/20/2012) This poor jeep has rusted away. I’m not sure there is too much value left here.

For sale is a Willys-Overland 1947 CJ2A fully restored frame up, with original L-134 flat head motor. Engine serial #J98994, frame serial #96785. Tub is a repli-tub purchased direct from willys=Overland, but we have the original tub serial #CJ-2a 96785 data plate that goes with the vehicle to the new owner.
Restoration completed 2000-2001 by experienced vintage car restorer, and it has been garaged indoors ever since. Has only been driven for about 400 miles since the restoration. Painted pasture green to match original paint. New canvas on seats. No top bows. Converted to 12v system, with original rebuilt starter still in operation. Have the original 6v parts if someone wants to convert back. Also have 2 spare carbs and misc parts.
This Willys is very solid and sound, there are no problems mechanically or otherwise. Ready to drive, parade, park, hunt, or whatever. Starts right up without any hesitation every time. Selctro hubs. 4 wheel drive works smooth and easy.
This vehicle will go anywhere, climb anything, and do just about anything! Speedometer works, but probably needs a little calibrating. Gas gauge works sometimes, well, most of the time, but there is an alternate gas gauge included in the sale (24″ wooden dip stick, never lies and doesnt need calibrating).
Tires are new NDT 700-15 (non-direction tread) purchased from Coker Tire with about 400 miles of use, plus matching rubber for spare tire (no rim).
All major parts are original, the grill, hood, fenders, and windshield (new glass and seals) are all original and completely restored.
Currently licensed in OR with Oregon Antique Vehicle plates. Frame, and serial number data plate match.”

Stuck in 3rd gear.
“I have a 1948 willyz jeep cj2a. It is all original except for the motor. The motor is a Corvette 327. Stock, it has double hump heads. It does run and drive. But It’s stuck in 3rd gear. Has rust in places, but what 48 don’t. I drove around town for awhile. And parked it 6months ago in shop. Has great tires. Front seats are rough. I don’t know the miles on the motor. It is fast. Wanting a cj5 or 7. Possible buying a house. That is only reason I’m selling… No low balling.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5250

“1946 Willys Jeep. Runs, needs brake work. We are selling because we recently invested in another classic car. Great fun!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000
This looks solid.
“This is a 1946 Willys CJ2A. This vehicle was done as a frame-off rebuild. Runs well and drives well. This was not a complete restoration. This vehicle was done to be driven for fun, rather than to be a show piece. That being said, here is a brief list of the work that was done:
Frame and body cleaned prepped and painted.
New headlights and tailights
New gauges
New seats
New front floor pans
New brake master cylinder, wheel cylinders, lines, front drums, shoes, and springs.
New front wheel bearings
New air cleaner
New plugs and wires,
Etc..
This jeep is great to just cruise around, or would be a great candidate for a complete restoration.
Asking 6,000 OBO”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500
It’s got some mods, but looks solid. The steps look altered.
