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 .
This looks like a great price and a fun restoration. It would be useful to see just how this was stretched. This could be a rare CJ-2L. This it the 5th one I have heard about or seen in the Pacific Northwest. You can see other stretched jeeps here. This looks like a good price. This almost looks like an old lefty, too.
“It’s all there but will need complete resto.Was stretched by a previous owner.Wheel studs are broken on front axle,so will not hold wheels. No title.”
“This is a pretty nice old jeep with a pretty chev smallblock,t90,spicer 18,dana 44/27 axles,pretty good top and interior,lifted.Does need a little like a front wheel barring and some wiring.Pretty nice paint and very little rust.”
(01/29/2011) Starting bid is $12k. It looks well maintained, but dusty.
“Up for auction is an original WILLYS 1946 CJ2A BOYER FIRE JEEP.
It is extremely hard to find an original Boyer jeep with that many accessories still on the vehicle. To find out more about Boyer jeeps please go to http://cj3b.info/Fire/fireindex.html.
The jeep is in orginal condition. It appears it has been painted once. The engine runs nice and smooth, all driveline works. Engine has original governor. The mileage on the vehicle shows 2304 miles however the speedometer appears to be broken. Jeep has some rust issues: front floor especially under the tool box (rusted through), on back corner behind reflectors (both corners rusted through), otherwise the outside body, fenders, etc. are in excellent condition especially the windshield frame (have never seen one in that great shape for a 1946 vehicle!).
The jeep comes with all the accessories you see in the pictures. Unfortunately it didn’t come with the pump. It appears that the pump was removed many years ago. The jeep was stored inside for many years, we changed the fueltank and the exhaust system as we didn’t want to take a chance with the old one with old fuel in it. The old fuel tank is emptied and is included in the auction. It appears there were no leaks from the old fueltank. Most likely it will need to be boiled out.
The brakes need to be looked after as the brake pedal goes straight down to the floor however it moves freely.
We have a professional restoration facility for Willys Jeeps and in our opinion this would be a simple restoration because everything is there to do nice job. Fuellines, brakelines, wiring harness all original.
This vehicle comes without any warranties or guaranties. We have over 15 years of experience in shipping vehicles worldwide and will assist buyer with shipping/loading and paperwork.
Shipping, taxes and/or other fees (import, customs, etc.) are not included in the auction and are the buyers responsibility.”
This has had some recent work according to the seller.

“I have a Willys CJ-2A Jeep for sale or trade. It runs and drives, but could use a tune up. It has an AMC 360 ci V8, T-18 granny 4-speed, Dana 20 T-case, Dana 44 30-spline rear axle, Dana 30 open-knuckle front axle with matching 3.73 gears, and 31×10.50 tires on chrome wagon wheels.

If you have an old Continental I’d love to trade. But I am open to ANYTHING.”
(2/14/2010) Much of the body is covered in diamond plating. I’m pretty sure I’ve listed this previously, but I can’t seem to find the old listing.
