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 $1800
The body appears in reasonable condition.
“1948 Willys CJ2A. Non-running project. Ran great until 5 years ago, when the engine started burning excessive oil. Started teardown of engine for rebuild, but lost time and interest. The jeep has been garaged ever since. Includes roll-bar w/ cage (cage removed). Best-Top full soft top with doors. Clear Maryland Title. Good restoration candidate. $1800/obo…”
It looks pretty stock, though it’s also a bit rough.
“1948 Will’y Jeep with a 1945 engine in it for sale. It runs! It has been converted to 12 volt. Please call for further details John (559)760-0021”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
I can’t tell a great deal from the pics, except that the colors match.
“1948 Willys CJ2A Jeep and 1949 Bantam Jeep trailer. Both stock. Six new military tires.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4800.
This has an unusual roll cage. Actually, I don’t know if those are bends in the bars or points. I’m not sure I’d want to roll and find out.
“All original except tires and wheels, and roll cage. Runs and drives great, no rust,kept indoors ,been in family for over 50 years.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This is probably a replacement body, since there is no battery box.
“It has been completely restored and modified. I have over 20K invested. There is no rust on it. It has a Kenne Bell Built Buick 225 V-6 pushing over 325HP; it has a Saginaw 4 speed manual transmission Spicer 18 twin stick, 2″ body lift, Dana 44 rear axle, and Dana 25 front axle with 538 gears. It has a Saginaw steering conversion very nice to drive. The tub has been Rhino lined top and bottom the engine compartment has been Rhino lined also. It has been converted to a 12 Volt system. It has brand new gauges, shifters, a yellow top Optima battery, and all new wiring, everything is all top of the line no detail has been over looked. I have all the receipts for all of the work that has been done to it and everything that has been bought for it”
This looks in pretty poor shape.
“
Selling my 46 Flattie, just not enough time or money at the moment so it’s gotta go. Only bought this this spring so I haven’t accomplished much. This will also include a partially torn down Buick 225 Odd-Fire V-6. Motor had a bent push rod and has sat for some time. All parts except distributor come with it though, I may be able to get a distributor if that’s the selling point. What you see is what you get with this one, no seats, cooling system, or wiring. From the middle of the cowl back is all torch cut 1/8″ plate, not nice to look at but would take a beating off road. There is a trans, transfercase, and axles present but I have not checked them out and it is to be assumed that they need rebuilt. Best part is this thing has a clear title in my name.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $400
“for sale is a vintage willys jeep not shur what year mostly compleate great for parts have many other willys jeep parts also no title.”
Only one pic of this jeep. This looks in good shape.
“$4500 Firm. All original, but have custom canopy. Was garaged for last 28 yrs.”
I like the old school slot mags on this jeep. The body appears to be in very good condition, at least on the outside.
