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 $500. This may have been one of the cj2a’s that was professionally extended and resold and called a CJ-2L. Learn more about the CJ-2L here.
“flatfender willyz long wheel base model. have many parts that go with the rig but it is in rough shape.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2250.
This might be a pretty good price.
“For Sale, this is a good, solid ole jeep. It has the original 4 cylinder flat head engine and everything, including the 4wd, works. It won’t win any races, but it will climb a telephone pole! We have used it many years on the ranch for hunting and building fence. I had plans of restoring it but thats not going to happen in the near future. We recently bought a UTV (because my wife and mother don’t like the standard tranny on the jeep) and we are not using this jeep like we need to. I hate for a machine to set without running so we have decided to sell it. It is ready to go to work or would be a good restoration project.”
UPDATE: More pics now available. Check out the rear bumper and the dash. This has some unusual features.
(03/01/2012) “I have a 1947 Willy’s Jeep project. It is rough. The front drive line is missing, the clutch & brake pedals are frozen to the floor, the fenders ARE there, not bolted on. It has a Chevy 350 in it, NOT RUNNING. The electrical system needs to be finished. There are no seats in it. The body has surface rust, but NO places eaten thru. It needs a lot of work! I’m letting everyone know now that it is no where near road ready. But does have a lot of potential. It has the rare hardtop, & power take off, it has a winch. The passenger side door is a little bent. So if you call me & want to take a look that’s great! But if I have someone telling me all the things wrong with it or try to give me $500, I’m going to simply say “have a nice day get off my property.” I’m tired of all the ridiculous people w anting it for free. The transmission & transfercase alone are worth $750. Also I am selling it AS-IS, no guarantees. It is on a NON – OP, I am selling it with a bill of sale only. I can go to DMV with you if you’d like, as the title was lost when I moved to Clovis. To come take a look call David at (209) 947-7434 ”

UPDATE: Still Available
(03/02/2012) This appears in good shape, though not totally original.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
It runs and the body has been patched a bit, though still a bit of a project.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer
This appears pretty stock. It might be worth a look if the seller isn’t unreasonable about the price.
“I am selling my 1948 willys jeep. Needs to be restored. All complete. Its been sitting for a few years, still very solid! 6 volt system. Comes with many extra parts, fenders, windshield, gas tank, exhaust, hubs, wheels, etc. Don’t need to sell so I won’t jump on any low ball offer. I would rather see someone enjoying it instated of it just sitting. Make me a reasonable offer.”
There appears to be value here.

UPDATE: Still Available
“1948 Willys Jeep CJ2A: This Jeep is in the process of a frame-off restoration. It is not finished yet…but a lot of the hard work is done. The engine is rebuilt. It has a new carburetor, radiator, all tune-up items, belts, hoses, etc. It comes with new floors. The frame is painted (has a few scratches). The body is sandblasted and ready for minimal rust repairs and floor replacement. It comes with a Skyjacker suspension lift (as well as the factory suspension), roll bar, etc. Lots of new parts are included (brake parts, bearings and seals, etc.). It is complete other than a few little things missing (easy to obtain parts). I also have a manual printed in 1966 from Jeep that will be of assistance. The Jeep has a lot of potential and will make a great project. This is a rare toy.
Thanks. Matt 785-817-7126″

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $10,900
(03/23/2011) At $10,900, there is NO windshield included. I’m sure it’s a solid jeep though. I think that front hangs a little low in the pic form the side.
