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 .
Something seems a little strange about the windshield.

(06/3/09) Looks like a parts jeep to me.
“I am selling this 1946 Jeep Willys CJ2A. I bought it as part of a package and my wife says it needs to go. It is not running, but the engine turns free and I just had the starter rebuilt. The only thing it’s missing is the Carb to get running again. The body will need some repairs, but I’ve been told that worse have been rebuilt. I have the tag that goes with it, along with a multitude of other parts. Just let me know what you need and I’ll include them. Thanks. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
“A 1948 willy nice willy solid great to drive . Has new brakes all around,new rebuilt tranmission,new floor borad, lots of new parts.you may e-mail me or call for more info”
This comes with some body parts. This might be a good price and a good foundation for an early build.
“This is a restored 1948 or 1949 Willys CJ3A rolling chassis with transmission, transfer case, front and rear axles and driveshafts. Frame has been sandblasted down & repainted, new brake lines and shocks. Has DJ3A fuel tank added in the rear of the frame. Comes with firewall, windshield frame, hood and grill from a DJ3A. No other sheet metal available. No engine.”

Here’s a restored CJ-2A.
“I hate, hate, hate that I have to sell this Jeep. I purchased this CJ2A several years ago and have 293 recorded man hours into the restoration. I have a full photo album of pictures from the very early stages through completion. However, only recent ones are available online. I have taken a few pictures of the pictures with my camera phone. Too much detail to go into regarding the restoration, but I do have a printout of everything that went into it. It runs well and is started weekly to keep everything in working order. T-90 Transmission and Transfer Case Model 18. Engine: #J45856. This restoration is one of the nicest that I’ve ever seen. This jeep is a great collectible and a piece of American history. Please feel free to ask questions, I’ll do my best to answer…. Make an offer! Can and would love to ship.”

UPDATE: SOLD .. Was listed at $500.
Given the parts, this seems like a good price. I’d think this would have the Dana 30 & Centered Dana 44 as well. I think I’ve seen this for sale previously.
“1948 Willys CJ2A with 74 CJ5 frame and 84 Buick 231 V6. Needs work, but will crank/start. Will need to be trailered. Good project vehicle.”

Great jeep for the cabin, hunting or just running around town with the kids and dog. I purchased it from the original owner and just don’t have room or time for more toys.
