About eWillys
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.
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: Currently, the yellow CJ-2A is for sale for $7500. I don’t know if the red jeep was auctioned off or not on June 25th (see bottom pic). but clearly the yellow one did not sell at the auction.

“1946 Willys Jeep. Runs and drives. 6 cylinder Ford engine. Pictures tell the story. Great project for restoration or for a parts vehicle. $800.00 contact me for more details.”
“Mostly complete. Will need a complete restoration or would make a good parts vehicle to complete a restoration already in progress. It has frame rust on divers side but it could be repaired. The transmission moves freely. The motor is in unknown condition and will not turn. At one time this jeep was in a forestry department (shield and numbers visible). What is shown in pictures is all that is available & reflect condition.
I have kept this jeep for 4 years and have not had time to restore her. $995 cash – I am not flexible on price and am not looking for a nostalgic conversation. Please only contact me if you are seriously interested, I know this Jeep will move quickly. I have paperwork but no title since its an antique car, can provide a bill of sale.”
(06/19/2019) This is listed as a 1946, but the serial number (100385) suggests this is a 1947.
“I have a 1946 Willys Jeep that I would like to sell for $3300. It needs some work, but it does run and drive and titled in PA as a vintage vehicle. In addition to the vehicle, I also have extra parts and an extra T90 transmission and Dana18 transfer case. The vehicle was bought originally as a project, but like almost all these ads, got way too out of hand with a lot of stuff happening in my life (graduating college, getting a job, moving, etc..). However, I would like this Willys to go to someone who would really appreciate its worth and hard work that has been put into it.
Off the bat, somethings that need to be worked on are mainly cosmetic with the body tub rusting in places and windshield missing the glass (I have windshield parts and seals). In addition, the transmission leaks sometimes, depending on the weather, which leads me to seals. Seats for these things are hard to come by (I have been trying to keep it OE), but the office chairs are there so the driver doesn’t just sit on the gas tank. Newer wheels would also be nice but the tubes are new with valves. Continue reading →
Appears to have some Allstate hubs, but I can’t tell for certain.
“For sale is a 1946 post WW2 “Freedom” CJ-2A Willys Jeep. Deer camp compatriot. Is in venerable condition. Has run in recent years. Needs attention and repair.”
(02/13/2017) Seller notes this was used in an episode called Swamp, part of the Dirty Rotten Survival series on the National Geographic channel.
“1946 Willys Jeep. This jeep was in a National Geograpic Movie, call Dirty Rotten Survival, swamped.
It was filmed down south in the swamps. I have the lease agreement and video of delivery of jeep.
My dad did a frame off restoration on this jeep 7 or 8 yrs ago. It runs like new. Everything is rebuilt or new. Has original 4 cyliner jeep engine. Asking 15k or best offer.”
“1946 Jeep Willy! Partial body restoration, rebuilt starter, new fuel pump. Runs like a champ! Very fun vehicle to drive off road! Love the Jeep Willy but don’t have much time to use it. I’d like for someone else to enjoy it as i have. Jeep also comes with its own custom trailer.”
