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 $5000
This has an unusual front fog light (or turning light?) solution on the front grille.
“1948 Jeep Willy CJ2A — odometer reads 60383 miles — New Exhaust Pipe, Muffler, Tail Pipe, Carburetor, Master Cylinder, Fuel Pump, Wheel Cylinders and Brake Pads, Rewired. Hard to start at times, but runs good when started frequently. Driven on road in 2010. Garage kept since I have owned. ”

Unclear if it runs or not.
“I have a CJ-2A Jeep which I think was built in 1942 – 1945? I’m selling this for my father. As you can see there’s a fair amount of rust in the body so it’s maybe a good vehicle for parts. The engine looks to be a 4 cylinder and it has a manual transmission. No current registration but a bill of sale will be provided at the time of sale”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
“1946 is the first year Willys manufactured the civilian jeep. Over 65 years young. Why not own a piece of history? Classic cars grow in value every year. This jeep was used as a gentleman’s grove jeep for many years.
Areas in the floor boards can use some welding repair, overall good condition. Jeep is titled and insured for street use. Runs great. Transfer, gear box, hubs operate perfectly. Spare tire / same as the 4 on the jeep. Spare parts include steering worm and pinion, new oil filter, rear shocks, new in box. Seats covered in green leather and seat belts added. New brakes, including all cylinders and hoses. Serviced September, 2010 ($1,600.00), bill available for inspection. Used little since. Garaged. Needs speedo cable. Amp wires reversed shows neg (-) instead of pos. (+)”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8,500.
(09/05/2011) This looks solid.
“This is a 1945 Willys cj2a. It is in great shape for its age. It has all the good up grades.
Steering box and colum, brakes, seats, gauges, suspension, tires, etc… Everything works.
Original 4 cylnder flathead motor that runs great. There are only so many of these left today.
Selling this fun eye catching collectable for $10,000.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200
(04/18/2010) “Body in ok shape rear replace and extended with square plate, straight frame, engine was pulled not running, still with jeep, title was lost by previous owner haven’t gone to DMV to replace. Larger project than I anticipated or have time for would just like to recoupe some of the money I payed for it, asking $1,200 o.b.o.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This fiberglass body has an unusually short dash. I can’t tell if it came that way or if it was cut.
“Willy’s CJ2A 1948. Fiberglass tub, all tires 99%, newer wheels, Baja lights, new starter switch and master cylinder, tow bar. The brakes need bleed, battery works but needs replaced, and engine is hard mounted. It also has a transmission leak from somewhere. Engine starts easily. Four wheel drive works. The title says 1949 but the VIN is from the 1948 period so I’m not sure what happened there. No VIN tag. Head 648830 engine P31351. from what I can tell its a F-head engine M-38. Block 646228-L-W10ANI-CR-N2.
Willy’s CJ2A 1946 parts jeep. Dualmatic hubs, hood is restorable, gas tank appears to be good, transmission appears to be ok, wheels are restorable, vin tag in place. VIN 79023, tailgate 6988. The engine was already removed whe I got it. I pulled it apart and it appears to be rebuildable. Head 640161 engine J206101. No title for this jeep. Block 641087-L-W7ANI-CR-N2 4-22.
I have described these to the best of my ability. It has been a while since I wrote all these numbers etc down so I hope I got them all correct. If you have questions please ask. I bought these to restore but due to back problems I had to stop.
I have more pictures if interested. All pictures were taken today. I plan to loosely assemble the spare motor with all misc parts bagged and tagged. All is sold as is and final.”
No pics provided, but sounds interesting.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
The engine is frozen.
“For sale is a late 40s CJ2 or CJ3 Willys jeep,
Has steel hardtop and doors.
It was in running condition before i bought it,
When i picked it up i found the pistons were locked up, i pulled the motor, and tore into it.
Has a 6 volt system, somebody put heater hoses through the firewall right where the vin tag use to sit.
I do not have any papers on this one, it can be brought to a DMV for a level 2 inspection , they will get the vin # off of the frame and give you a title.
I have to many vehicles and not enough time.
For $200. I have a Lhead, motor that turns freely, might need a ring job.
The jeep will come will all the parts to make it run,(everything attached to the motor).”
