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 .
Listed as a 1942 VEC, I don’t see anything from 1942 nor from a VEC model.

“1948 CJ-2A flat fender sitting on a short CJ-5 chassis – Professionally done T-18 Ford (low) tranny with Dana18/20 hybrid transfer case with overdrive kit to be installed 35” tires, including new spare Custom-made Dana 44 axles – Currie Front and rear hydro-boost disk brakes Even-fire Buick Holley-injected engine This jeep entered the 2013 Ultimate Adventure and was on the cover of Peterson’s off-road during the same time. Also made an appearance in the November 2013 edition. (Magazine copies included). Runs and drives – still needs some rewiring to be completely reliable. The jeep is almost trail ready, just needs some TLC. Clear WA title.”
This is powered by a Toyota diesel. It isn’t clear to me if this is a customer build or imported rig?

“Modified Willy jeep, diesel Toyota engine, 5 speed manual, only 3000 miles, amplifier speakers Have title”
Edit. Looks like the ad was not legit, so removed the link to the group, took some digging but found some references to the post. Keeping the pics up someone might want to check them out…..Tim
This CJ-2A is a Lefty with a rear PTO and gearbox. Thanks to Andy for spotting it.

“Got two cj2a in pieces .was going to make murders but I went other way. Shoot me a offer or trade I’m open what you got.”
Andy shared these parts jeeps. It looks like one has the remnants of a Kelly hardtop. There’s a PTO winch also, which sits on the 3A.

“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 has welded pinion gears, so not too practical for on road driving.

“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.”
