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 .

“1946 cj2a engine is rebuilt with new cam and lifters, bored with new pistons, crank was turned,valves regroups and everything else that goes with a rebuild. I got this out of a clean dry garage where it had been since 1981. I have all the parts to put it back together that are not in pics. Radiator, generator, starter, carb , full exhaust some of it is new. My next move was to do brakes and engine components. This Jeep has a rare Sears and Roebuck hardtop kit from the 60sinstalled on it. I have two extra engines and some other parts that I will sell after the Jeep goes. Price is $6500. Send me your number and I will call. I’m willing to get as many pictures as you want for serious buyers. “
This includes an overdrive.

“This is my dad’s 1947 Willy’s CJ2A. He put an original military grill on it, bolted on simulated body armor, and installed military wheels and a pedestal mount for a completely fake, but very realistic all steel 1917 machine gun model (not included unless you buy the 1917 also). He used this jeep for WW2 reenactments, mainly in the 1980s and early 1990s. He recently passed and we are selling it. It was last driving in 2018 when it was parked and does not currently run.
Frame is good needs body work. I assume the purchaser will unbolt and remove the fake armor (wood) and restore it. I will include the original 7 slot grill and headlight assembly and the original tailgate. I will also include the original passenger seat, which will need to be redone. There is no title and my dad has owned this jeep since the early 1970s. It was always garaged. $3200 or best offer. Yes, the 1917 reproduction model is available. It is a model, it is not real, nor does it function in any way. It’s a dummy.”
The chassis has front frame horns, so this might not be a CJ-3B chassis.

“Sadly due to financial woes I have to part with my Willy’s Jeep project. I have been saving it to restore and sell to raise money for a camp for troubled youth, but I just don’t have anymore personal resources to support this mission. Strong engine and transmission. It was running and driving around the block up here last year, but I recommend a mechanic tune it up before trying to move it any distance. I had all new brake lines installed. I have several boxes of parts as I was in the middle of upgrading the 6volt system to 12volts and changing out the lights to support that system. Also comes with a brand new radiator ready to be installed. Located in Conifer 80433. I DO have the title for this one. I also have a 1953 Dodge M37 from the Caribou Ranch recording studio available. Priced to move both of these so I can move on with my life. Call or text with questions! 3oh3838NineThousand.”
Includes a rear PTO, but no gearbox. Another frame, suspension and big tires included.

“Original 4-cylinder engine. 3 speed manual with rear pto. Ran when disassembled. Tub needs floor panes installed, suspension has been altered, good frame and suspension included. Milage unknown. Sell as package only. Asking 1500 obo or possible trade for interesting pick-up project”
Sounds like it may be a project.

“1948 Willys CJ-2A. It’s a basket case right now. It has a ford 302 V8 it runs and moves under its own power. The rest of the drivetrain is stock. I pulled the tub off to replace the floorboards and lost interest after I got the tub back on. It needs to have. The brakes and wiring hooked back up. It comes with a bunch of new parts. Could be a fun project for someone who has the time.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $16,000.
(06/18/2022) The pics suggest this is a good restoration. This has a rear PTO gearbox.

“I have a 1948 CJ2A with rear PTO. It’s all restored to original. The restoration was done roughly 15 years ago but looks like it was done less than that. This was all done recently as it sat for so long: New fuel pump, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, condenser, oil lines, fuel pump to carb line, carb was completely rebuilt, new master cylinder, bell and crank for the steering. I’m sure I’m missing a few things. Have new wheel cylinders but haven’t installed them. Comes with tire chains, a bucket of carbs (3-4) a crate of other parts and a hard cab that needs to be finished. Runs and drives. $18,500. Open to trades”
This looks like a good price for a jeep with these updates.

“1947 cj2a, 225 dauntless V6 3 speed, with overdrive. Front disc brake conversion, Saginaw steering conversion, fairly new soft top with doors, for roll cage connected to the frame. The body is all fiberglass the windshield frame is metal. The mileage is 26490 and that is after the rebuild Asking 6,000 or best offer located in Winona Minnesota. Clean title in my name.”
Looks like a nice build.
