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 .
The windshield looks like a nicely modified cj-2a windshield to me.
“Fiberglass bodied CJ2A, needs a grill, rollbar, and steering column. Comes with stronger spare 3B frame, 4.3 liter chevy V6, adapter bell housing, T90 transmission and Spicer D18 transfer case. Has custom stainless steel filler necks on both sides of Jeep. Includes wiring harness. $1000 OBO, call to see, (559) 760-1946”

Check out the two large additions to the front bumper. Any thoughts on what they were built to do? (Push, Haul, Hunting Seat?)
“1946 Willys Jeep CJ2-A. Clean TX title, new antique lic. plate, starts right up and runs and drives great. Recent charcoal paint, good black vinyl seats. Converted to 12 volt alt. Good tires with aluminum wheels. Front tow bar included. The fold down windshield is missing. (Available at JC Whitney for about $500. ) We enjoy putting around the lake without it. Radio is no good and the emergency brake is gone, though I’ve never missed it. This is a really fun and eye-catching 67 year old toy. Very little wiggle room on this price and cash only! Tankx for your interest.”
The engine rebuild. It might be worth a look, but from the outside the body looks patched (rather than repaired).
“CJ-2 in excellent running condition. Flathead 4 was totally rebuilt with all new internals, (crank, rods, pistons, rings, cam, bearings, valves, etc…). The engine only has a little over 5 hours since built and purrs like a kitten! The clutch is also new and the transmission has hi-low in both 2 and 4WD. The body was repaired with all new metal by the previous owner but needs finishing to look nice. It needs a brake line or brake cylinder as the pedal went to the floor last fall and I have physically been unable to get to it. I am looking to sell or trade for a full-size bus or a motorhome.
Sorry but these are the only pics that I currently have.”

It runs and drives, but the body has a few issues.
“1947 Willys Jeep Runs and drives great. Very minor rust by rear tail light and one small patch on passengers floor. Seat are in good shape. Four wheel drive works perfect. Fuel gauge does not work. Original 4 cylinder motor starts easily and runs smooth.”
No pics provided.

The tub is supposed to be brand new. Not sure what’s in the back of it.
“I have a rolling chassis Willys cj2a. The tub is brand new with all of the right markings and stamps. I have a 4 cyl engine a transmission and two transfer cases. I also have numerous other random parts that are included in the price. I even have an actual pink slip weather you could get it to work with the new tub I don’t know”
UPDATE: Was on eBay. **SOLD**

Walter spotted this. I wonder if this was really a Navy Shore Patrol Jeep or whether it was made to look like that later. It looks solid though.

It runs, but needs some work. The rille looks ’46. The crossmember looks updated.
“I am selling a 1947 Willys Jeep 1948 CJ2A for $2800. The Jeep runs but needs a few items to be road worthy. The water pump needs replaced, I have the parts just have not installed. The brake system needs some work. I have about all the parts that it needs except shocks to get up and running. I have multiple fenders, hood, new windshield, new tires, and to many other parts to mention. I traded for this vehicle from a friend but have not had the time to do anything to it, too many other projects.”
