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 .
That Chevy engine fits nicely.

“1946 CJ2A. Frame off restoration. 4-Cylinder Chevy engine, otherwise original equipment.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
“FOR SALE. 1947 Willys Overland, CJ-2A, JEEP
Previous owners have made substantial investments in the restoration of this Jeep. The engine has been rebuilt and starts and runs like new. Compression is 125 PSI in each cylinder. Oil pressure in 40 PSI. Vacuum is 20”/Hg. Brakes have new cylinders and lines. Drums and shoes are in VG condition. Exhaust system is like new with surface rust. New parts include fuel pump and tank, oil bath air cleaner, etc.
At some point in time this vehicle found itself too close to a fire, resulting in blistered paint on the right front and side of the body and two melted plastic parking light lenses. The right front tire is blistered and charred and would be unsafe to use. The other 3 tires are truely like new. Glass cracked. The grill, front fenders and windshield frame are in remarkably nice, rust free condition. The tub, though it looks generally decent, and is quite serviceable, shows rust damage that has been “repaired” (covered up) in a substandard manner. The electrical wiring is new from the battery to the ignition system. The lighting wiring has been disconnected at the switch since some original wires are worn and frayed. Upholstery is, well, take a look at the pictures. Rear seat in good.
Examination of the drive train internals shows little ware. See transmission photo.
If you want a project Jeep where the big stuff is done, take a look at this one. Great potential. Your effort will add value to this classic.
This 72 year old vehicle is being sold as-is, where-is. Clear CA title”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.

“Selling my 1948 Willy’s Jeep CJ-2A in excellent condition for $18,500 OBO. Numbers matching. Clean title in hand.
Completely ready for Moab or to be driven in a parade.
My wife says it’s time to clean out the garage and since the Willy’s mainly sits in the garage untouched, it’s probably time to let it go.
Excellent condition, no rust, everything works perfectly (better than original), starts on the first crank every time, very smooth/quiet running, always kept in a garage, and does not leak a drop of oil. Continue reading

F Head 134 engine
Transmission, transfer case, brakes, all gear boxes are in good running condition
Started cutting the rust out of the floor to patch it up and gave up on it, not much left to work with, I think it needs a new tub and I’m not interested in doing that.”
