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: Still Available
This looks like a well modified jeep. Of course, I’m partial to the rims.
“1947 Willys CJ2A fresh small block Chevy 350, 3 speed auto, 44 in rear w/locker, 30 in front, 4 core radiator w/2 electric fans, off-road carb kit, power steering w/tilt and Jeep steering wheel, power brakes w/discs in front, 2 new BFG muds, Jeep seats front & rear, full roll cage, spare tire mount, winch plate, good glass, comes w/spare tires & wheels and a few miscellaneous spare parts. ”
I’m not sure if this is a PNW legal racer or not. It may just be a sand/mud buggy. I can’t tell for sure, but I suspect the body is fiberglass, probably a bobcat body, as the rim around the back looks wider than a standard body. I am wondering why they dont’ have a front bumper on the thing. There about $800 is tires alone, if in decent shape.
“i have a 41 flat fender willys jeep it has a 350 and a 700r tranny and a narowed toyota rearend and five point harrnesses it comes with a set of 31” paddles and a wheelie bar askin 3500 or trade for something 4×4 and of equal value.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.

There’s a variety of nice updates to this CJ-2A. The hole in the hood would not be one of them. I bet the seller would throw in the ‘rock’ brake (note driver’s side tire) as a freebie.
“GOOD SOUND 1947 JEEP PROJECT. HAS A SMALL BLOCK 350 WITH CORVETTE MANIFOLDS IN IT BUT THE MOTOR GOT RAIN WATER IN IT. IT COMES WITH A FRESH MILD BUILT CHROMED 350 WITH EDELBROCK ALUMINUM INTAKE.

WOULD BE A FUN PROJECT.”

The more I read the list of specs on this jeep, the more I liked it. The drive train is a great combo for both on road and off road. I think the addition of an overdrive would really complete this nice package.
“This is a 1948 Willys CJ2A with a Meyer power angle plow setup. I put the plow on 3 years ago and it was only used on my driveway. This jeep has seen its share of off-road use so it isn’t a show vehicle. It is a very strong working Jeep that is a blast to drive on and off road. Body is a replacement steel tub, hood, fenders, grill, windshield frame and tailgate are original. 225 cu.in. Dauntless V6 from a 1970 Jeep. HEI electronic ignition.
SM420 transmission, 4 speed with 7.05:1 granny low first gear. Dana 18 transfer case with the large 1.25″ intermediate shaft. Dana 44 rear axle with Lockright locker and 4.27 gears. Dana 27 closed knuckle front axle with 4:27 gears.”
I’m not sure what all is combined to make this flattie. The good news is that the body appears to be in excellent condition. Lots of large pics on the Ad allow for close inspection. The seller notes that this a currently a 2wd vehicle, though in one image it looks like there is a front pumpking visible.

“I bought this with intentions of restoration but it isn’t going to happen. I replaced all the brake lines, hoses, wheel cylinders and master cylinder. It runs decent, will need an exhaust manifold. I’ve got the doors for the hardtop with good glass. Certainly not road worthy but a good candidate for restoration.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
