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 $9000.
Powered by a V-8.

“For Sale: $3,000
1947 Jeep Willys CJ-2A
Clear NM Title
Original “Go Devil” L-134 engine
Original T-90 transmission
Original Dana 18 transfer case
Body has some rust that will need to be repaired or used as a parts vehicle for another project. Engine ran when previous owner had it but parked it about 10 years ago after water pump started to leak. I have not tried to run it since getting it but engine does rotate and has non-contaminated oil.
The Bad: The passenger side storage is rusted (very common) and the original owner welded on a spare tire mount that has cracked the body right next to it. No seats, the previous owner welded in some seats that were complete junk so I started removing them.
Prefer e-mail. If you want pictures of anything let me know, I have lots of them.
Not looking for trades or willing to entertain low ball offers.”
That’s one of the more unusual hood bumps.

“12 volt converted runs and drives was an old man’s hunting rig. Has a 3 B motor in it that’s why there is a air cleaner on hood. Shoot me a offer. Come look come see this old Willy’s”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $12,000.
(11/09/2019) Rear of the body has some dents. More pics would be useful for this militarized 2A.

“Rebuilt engine, new tires, like new removable military canvas summer top, runs good!”
Seller listed the price as $2000, but is interested in offers. The top is dented (from a tree)? and the front bumper looks like it hit something. It’s been parked since 1972.

“Listing this for my dad! Message me for his number! Please call him for questions or details. 1948 Willy’s 2J2A Jeep. All original gearing. 4 cylinder flat head, 6 volt system. The engine was running when I parked it back in 1972. Hasn’t run since. MAKE ME AN OFFER!”
For the price, it’s worth a look.

(10/11/2018) TJ spotted this one.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/247374282949979/
“If this is posted, yes it’s still available. I will no longer respond to the 30-40 people per day asking that question.
A literal barn-find 1947 CJ2A. Good title in hand. Mostly complete and in unmolested condition. Does NOT run. Bring a trailer and cash, or ask about possibly delivering (for a fee). Needs restoration.
Our business is restoring WWII and classic Jeeps. We simply have too many projects, so we’re letting this one go to free up some space. Does NOT run. NEEDS restoration. HAS title. PROJECT Jeep”
It’s missing a few stock details (pto bar and rear lights), but otherwise looks in good shape.

(10/16/2019) This looks to have an Szekely APU hood and possibly a DJ-3A body (I can just make out the DJ-3A parking brake hole on the dash).
