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 .
This is an early one (#12146). Been converted to floor shift. Has the early windshield.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7800.
This is a mix of parts. Seller claims the body is a CJ-3A, but it’s an M-38. Those “Desert Dog” tires must be recaps?? The windshield is military, not CJ-2A.
“Chance of a Lifetime? 1945 Willy’s Jeep built by hand with crate parts in 1973. Approx 6K Miles. Runs amazing. Starts right up every time. I am the 2nd owner. Lights and turn signals work. 4wd works. 4 cyl Flathead engine. This Jeep has won a couple car shows. No rust that I’ve seen. Garage kept it’s entirety.
‘45 Jeep CJ 2A Chassis, ‘48 CJ 2A Head Engine, ‘52 CJ 3A Body.”
UPDATE: There were two CJ-2As available, but it appears the gray one sold.

“1947 Willys CJ2A. Has clear title and vintage tags. Has original-equipment Go Devil four-cylinder engine, new brakes, new suspension, completely rewired with working headlights, turn signals and gauges. Glass is perfect. New fuel tank. Three speed on the floor. Converted to 12-volt. Roll bar, emergency brake, seat belts. Small shackle lift that can be easily removed to bring to stock height. Runs well and stops well. Drive train and 4-wheel drive work. Being the 70-plus-year-old workhorse it is, top speed is 45 mph. Would need to be trailered. Nothing fancy; far from perfect, but surviving civilian version of the vehicle that helped win World War II. Come out to the ranch in North Central Washington and take a look at Grandpa’s old Jeep. Cash sale, as is, where is. $4,500.“
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1400.
The $1700 price includes the rear PTO and gearbox (I’m assuming the seller is selling the rear gearbox, the shaft, and the PTO … this might not be the case). Without it, the price is $1300. The PTO is also listed separately here.

“This is a well maintained 1946 CJ2A that runs well and is kept in the garage when it is not being driven. Title is clear and Mileage is about 79,000 and climbing since it is usually driven for short trips every week or two during the summer. No front end shimmy. Frame is solid and bumpers are straight. Electrical system is the original 6 volt configuration. All gauges work along with headlights, taillights, blinkers, horn, and dash light. Heater and heater fan work well. The winch was manufactured by Sears and is operated by a hand crank. The body is in decent shape and would be a good candidate to restore. It has a hard top with doors that are easily removed by pushing out the hinge pins and the rear upper gate removes like a storm window. The entire cab can be removed by unscrewing four large wing nuts around the back, and two j-Bolts holding the roof to windshield frame. There is a modified bus seat that fits nicely in the back for more passengers.
Also included are lots of new and used parts such as clutch and pressure plates, clutch rebuild kits (still in WWII packaging), front axels, U-Joints, Carburetor, differential (New still in cosmoline), new in the box sealed beam headlight, starters, tie rods and ends, water pumps and much more….
If responding by email, please put “JEEP” in the subject line so my SPAM filter doesn’t catch it.”
UPDATE: Still Available. The seller is a friend of Glenn’s. Per Glenn, the seller “really wants to sell this nicely restored Jeep and will listen to a reasonable offer knowing he will not recoup costs.” If you have questions, feel free to contact Dave at drault58@myfairpoint.net.
UPDATE: Price dropped to $3800. Seller has master cylinder that needs to be installed.

That could be an early Worman hardtop.

“Willys jeep, 1940s? Ran when parked ~10 years ago and now seized. Rough body. No registration. Sold as-is. $950 OBO.”
If you are looking for a non-stock 2A body, this could work. It’s one of the repro CJ bodies with the passenger side tool indents and military-like glove box on the passenger side of the dash.
