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 $1350.

“Runable. needs some work”
Get this while it lasts. It looks pretty good.
“1946 Jeep CJ2. Titled. Project car, but its mostly complete, and in fair shape. A piston seized, and I just tore the whole thing apart, and I was going to completely restore the whole thing. Everything is there, it just needs to be assembled. I have a military style grill, and a windowframe to go with it. 360-907-0631, I prefer email if you can. $900 bucks, fairly negotiable. Bring a Trailer.”

I love the old school paint job.
“Up for auction is 1946 Willy’s CJ2A #64464. Many years in previous family and believed to be originally purchased in California. Barn storage or desert life much of vehicle’s existence and what little rust around steps came from outside storge last few years not far from southern California beach.
I purchased this 2A as a project to do with my son as I soon planned to start work on my original one owner California ’48 CJ2A(red one in couple of pictures) and was not far from my house. I believe it to have most of it’s original Harvest Tan paint in tact and to be 95% rust free. This 2a underwent a very well done 283 Chevy V8 engine swap in the 60’s that included 11″ brake upgrade and GM steering. The fire wall has been moved rearward 4″ with nice metalwork. Sold with bill of sale. Vehicle does not have windshield, seats or engine. Have seen some restored and complete rolling chassis on ebay as late so maybe a great restorable body can be of help to someone.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1500
(03/22/2010) Here are a couple of CJ-2As.
“Have one 1946 and one 1947 Willys for sale (must take both) restorable $1500.00 for both or make resonable offer”

The seller notes this is all stock, which is obviously not quite right.It looks in good condition.
“We are selling our little jeep that is all stock. This has not been molested or modified. We had bigger brakes put on so it would stop nice. It has no top. We only used it at the lake in Eastern WA so w never needed one. This will make a great hunting rig or 4×4 rig Call Eric 253-691-9786”
