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 $1650.
(10/16/09) It runs, but has a clutch problem.
“
Complete. Has all components. Great project for the jeep enthusiast. Engine runs like a clock. Smooth and quiet. Seems to have a clutch problem. Call (do not email) Jerry for details.”
Here’s a wonderful build, an experiment by a reader named Chad. He wanted to know what a Ford Model A Roadster would look like if Willys built it. So, naturally, he built one himself!
He writes, “Did all of it myself except the upholstery, in my home garage. It’s got a flathead V8 for power and took between 6 and 8 years start to finish. The dDrivetrain is flathead V8 adapted to a C-4 automatic adapted to Dana 18. Front axle is Dana 27 w/Corvette discs….rear is Dana 44 with one piece axles and Lock-rite geared 4.27. I thought maybe it would be a four year job, but stuff happens and there was a whole lot of headscratching to make things look ‘somewhat factory’. I used as many factory parts as I could but not necessarily the way they were used ‘by the factory’…..(those are Jeepster tailights, but they aren’t mounted that way on a Jeepster, just as an example).”
Great work and thanks for sharing!
This looks like a solid build.
“Rebuilt ’46 Willys cj-2a. new brakes, rear axle, clutch, transmission, gearbox, exhaust. 24000 miles on odometer. ’74 buick jeepster engine inside (V-6). fiberglass body. No room to store it anymore.”

It looks like a parts jeep to me.

UPDATE: Was $13,000. **SOLD**
I’m not entirely sure if this is a CJ-2A or MB.
“
1946 Willys CJ2A. Runs Great. Stock Running Gear. Warren Overdrive. Full Roll Cage. Best Top. Front Locking Hubs. 12 Volt System. 8000 lb Warren Wench w/ Remote Control. Rubicon Rack w/ Cans.”
“(from the ad on ebay) Here is a one of a kind parade Jeep. It was finished October 2007 and was shown at the 2008 Fall Willys Reunion in Jefferson City, MO. No restorable Jeep body parts were used in its construction. Mechanically it is in very good condition. It is controlled from the red end only. The engine starts and runs good, transmission and transfer case work good. It has standard Jeep 4-wheel drive. The brakes were rebuilt. The gas tank is from a Willys pickup. It has a new wiring harness, new gauges, including fuel gauge and fuel sending unit. It has a new alternator, fuel pump and rebuilt starter. It comes with a vinal cover for transport. All lights work including rear head lights and will pass Missouri State inspection. It has a clear Missouri title. ”
Other Double Enders from Hemmings (see more at Hemmings):
This might be a good deal.
“I have a 1946 Willys Jeep. It has been sitting awhile. Has the flathead 4 cyl., nice tires, and ran nice before we parked it. It needs a new battery, and seats. Asking 1200, email for more photos”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was for trade.
“I have a 1947, Willys flat fender 4×4 Jeep that ,due to circumstance, I am looking to trade toward a great running, registerable, vehicle, of equall value. I am a mother of three, and I currently have two vehicles that ,together, don’t add up to fullfill my needs. My Willys has a new paint job, dana 44’s, rancho suspension(front&back), fiber-glass tilt front end, roll cage, full tow package, power breaks, power steering, and more… I Hate to part ways with our jeep, but, a girls gotta do, what a girls gotta do”
This appears to be a great price on a stock jeep that appears to include a plow.
“In very good condition. All original. Is in process of restoration. Please contact me for more info. Thomas”
