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 $1200
(04/25/2010) This needs some parts or will make a part’s jeep.
“
i have a 1947 willys cj2a have title . has no brakes and wont go in to gear (clutch problem) . i does start and run”
This looks like a nice build.
‘1947 Willys CJ2A, 302 V8, C4 Automatic Transmission, 2″ lift, Warn Overdrive, ProBillit Dist, B&M Shifter, GM Alternator (new) 3wire, New Paint / bushings, Lined interior, New VDO Gauges, Painless Wiring (new), Custom Fuel Cell, Custom Bumpers, Battery Cell, LED Lights, New Tires and wheels. This has been a fun vehicle but it is time to move to the next project. When I started with this vehicle, it was nice… I just couldn’t leave it alone. We pulled the body, blasted it to the metal, and filled/welded all of the holes and removed any rust. I replaced the front fenders with new, built and installed a fuel cell, added new glass and rubber, shocks (rancho), tires, wheels, paint, wiring, powdercoating, etc. On and on and on. With the overdrive, highway speeds can be maintained. Please call with any questions. Thanks for looking. Matt 559.906.2089.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1350.
I believe this comes with an engine and radiator, but they are not installed.
“This jeep comes with a newly rebuilt 6 cylinder flathead engine and a new radiator. The jeep comes “as is” – no title. $1,350.00 takes everything. More pictures available.”
UPDATE: WAs $4000. **SOLD**
Only 15hp? That’s a pretty low estimate.
“1947 Willys Jeep CJ2A, 4 Cyl, 15 HP. Great shape! Runs well!”
UPDATE: This Jeep owner is liquidating his jeeps (about 15 of them).
(01/26/2010) “Willys jeeps for sale….call with needs or project requests. I am liquidating and selling approx. 15 of them. All stages of rust and repair. 1946-1963 Lots of parts also! 231 five one zero zero nine one one Phone calls only please. Matt”

I suspect this does not have an overhead cam and it certainly is not all original for the year. Brett called on this and the seller mentioned the engine does smoke. The body appears solid.
“1949 Willy’s Jeep 1.34 engine with overhead camshaft everything is orginal for the year, but not necassariy for this particular Jeep. runs good, but burns oil, transmission slips out of second.”

It needs an engine and a few other parts, but otherwise looks solid.
“Roller, perfect for Buick V-6, Chevy 283. NO rust, frame perfect. $2800 OBO”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
“Cutest thing in town! Draws crowds where ever we go! Brand new Jeep top. Has a starter problem ($60 fix) but other than that it runs great! SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY!”
