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 .
“1947 JEEP WILLYS CJ2 49K oringinal miles. My father and I bought this Jeep locally in the hopes of bringing it back to life. We have both been too busy to work on it which is the reason we’re selling it. As most of you know, these are extremely hard to find collector Jeeps. It is in pretty good condition in comparison to a lot of other Willys I’ve seen for sale. The flat-head four cylinder is out of it right now however can easily be put back in. The windshield frame is from the military version and is very rare. We are willing to deliver for the price of mileage. My direct e-mail for questions, offers, or to set up an appointment to view this Jeep is : ansouthard@hotmail.com or phone : Andrew…270-791-0527. (Private # calls will not be answered or returned).
(03/27/2010) Check out the unusual updates on this. For example, note the welded tailgate at an angle.
“1949 Willys Jeep. $3,000 or best offer! 12 Volt System. 4 Cylinders. 4×4. The Jeep needs a little work. It ran two years ago, I did not try to start it.”
(03/22/2010) This looks well put together. I like the way that Pontiac engine sits in the engine compartment. However, I’m confused about one item .. no gauges? See picture 1.
“This is a 1946 WILLYS and man is it COOL! The body is all fiber glass and in great shape. It has a 4 cylinder Pontiac motor. The old guy I am selling it for just drives it in parades but it drives real nice and is street legal. It is very clean I did not air up the tires in the picture but thay are fine.”
(04/12/2010) This looks great. I have to say I expected a a little more modern engine.

(04/14/2010) “Runs great! all orginal vin# plates & have title, must see to adore!! i always wanted one, but times are getting tough!! must sell now!!”
(04/17/2010) It’s a nicely maintained old Jeep. The underneath of the body looks great!
“This Vehicle was owned by an older Gentleman for the last 24 years, It looks to be meticulously well maintained and cosmetically redone on the body . The paint appears to be new at some time before i got it , I waxed it and it was the first time anyone had ever waxed it, not that it was neglected I think he just did not get too it before he passed away. This jeep was always stored in a garage and covered before I bought it. Also the interior seats were recovered in a tan vynle , note I did see one small 1/4 inch tear repair on drivers seat looks like a good repair, also the rollbar is upgraded to around 3″ version with a new black bikini half top, The electrical system was also converted 12 volt with a one wire alternator , with new taillights and marker reflectors . Front bumper looks new with a new brush guard with accessories running lights and brackets for the tow bar that bolts to it, also new headlights with chrome rings and screen guards also stainless grill screen guard. All the gauges fuel temp amps and oil are new ,original speedo The original wipers are not hooked up or on . I was told they weren’t working but go with vehicle. New Goodyear Wrangler tires and white spoke rims .The body by my inspection does not appear to have any rust or ever had any rust repairs that I can see from inspecting from looking underneath the body. This Willys starts and runs excellant runs real quiet cruises nice at 55 -60 mph also has a tachometer. Has all dash 4×4 stickers and plates . The motor runs strong and does not emit any smoke upon starting or driving. The trans is very tight and does not grind or howl when shifting or driving. overall This jeep to Me seem real nice driver. The brake system has also been upgrade with a power booster assist witch is mounted on the drivers inner fender in engine bay. and seatbelts were installed front and rear.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1850. As Brett and JR note below, the battery box suggests the body is from a M-38. I lighted up the passenger side image using photoshop, but couldn’t spot any tool indents. I also tried lightening up the rear facing image, but couldn’t learn anything about the dashboard.
(10/01/2009) “1947 willys CJ2A jeep. Vehicle has been stored for past several years. New battery, wheel cylinders, and fuel pump. Engine runs and is drivable but not road worthy as yet. Has tow bar, PTO winch and trailer hitch. Engine and frame is civilian and the body is a used military replacement. No major rust, seats are in good condition.”
