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 $8900
(11/04/2012) I’d like to see more pics of this. I wonder if it has VEC touches, too.
“Complete frame off restoration of a late 1945 early 1946 CJ2A. All matching numbers. Original engine.
6 volt system. 5 new original tires, tow bar, Bestop Tiger Top. Will consider trade for vehicle of equal
value.”
This has no title. I’m unclear why the gas inlet was modified. Note the header runs through part of the step area.
“This is a down to frame restoration, we kept everything as original as we could, repairing and restoring parts rather than purchasing new Chinese replacements. The wheels and tires of course are not original nor the bucket seats and headers. High and low range 4×4 work, the transmission we took completely apart and restored but 3rd gear slips out occasionally going down hill, a simple fix but I need to move on. I have some seat attachments and floor plates that need installed and I have a muffler for it, I just think it sounds better without it. You’ll need floor mats if you want them and the back seat This Jeep is completely road legal but I wouldn’t recommend pavement unless you put the original tires and wheels back on.”

This might be a pretty stock jeep.
“My husband recently passed away of cancer and I need to sell this this 1948 Willy’s Jeep ASAP. I am asking 2500.00 OBO. It does great plowing snow as well as grading roads and making them smooth. It does burn a little oil If you are interested in taking this little jeep home”
This is a pretty stock jeep. Might make a good restoration project.

(10/19/2012) This may be worth a look. I love the looks of those Ford Flathead motors.
“I have a 1948 Willys CJ-2a that is in decent condition. The body is pretty sound, there are a few rusty spots here and there. The main area of concern is a few spots in the front toeboards. If you have the capability to weld, these repairs should be no big deal. Overall this Jeep is very fixable. The master cylinder and slave cylinder need to be rebuilt, and this thing could be drivable.
Someone retrofitted a late model Ford flathead v-8 motor into this thing many years ago. The motor runs excellent, and has 50 pounds of oil pressure. Clear title to the Willys. I can’t tell you anything more than what I wrote here, you’re going to have to assess the vehicle with your own two eyes in person.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000
(11/15/2012) The step has been redone and this is missing a few details.
“1946 Willys Jeep Asking $5,000”
