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: Still Available.
(05/24/2024) This looks solid. It’s got a replacement body, so it should be in good shape.

“Runs great and looks amazing! Took first place in the one car show I took it to and all the other parts come with it along with a v6 Buick motor. Open to trades but not selling individual parts!”
This has a rear PTO and gear box.

“Runs, drives. starts with key. brakes not working. has title. L134 engine, T90 transmission. PTO shifter with complete PTO unit on back of jeep. when you engage the PTO shifter, a spline on the back bumper turns.”
The seller has a variety of parts, including what looks to be an FC door. The body appears to be a VEC CJ-2A.

“Custom Massey Harrison 1946 Willis drive train all Custom 4×4 works starts drives and stop head turner vary nice jeep and really fun driver”
This has at least one combat rim. It’s also got full floaters in the rear. It might also have been a column shift. It could be a ’45.

“1946 CJ2A military police jeep. Needs a lot of work. Everything is there to put back together. I priced what I think it would take to do it right, you would be looking at probably 10,000. Everything now is original, I think.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(05/24/2024) Needs work of some type.

“This Jeep runs and drives well.We have it legal and ride it on roads some.Many new parts.Needs a little time and effort put into to make it new again.Great little project.”
The front frame rails suggest this might be a 3A chassis. It includes a new body.

“1946 Willy’s jeep got a brand new body front fenders good and tail gate paid 5,000$ for the body alone it runs and moves under it’s own power clutch is free had all intentions on redoing it just to many projects 5,000$ or best offer no title!!! Needs gone”
Not sure have much value this column shift CJ-2A has.

“I have a 1946 Jeep Willy’s complete running gear everything but the top don’t know much about it other then it ran 13 years ago. Along with it I have a 1947 frame and running gear the motor has already been changed to a 12 volt system it ran 5 years ago would be great to freshen up and fix the buddy on the other 2500 Firm will not respond to is it available When I get the data tag information and serial number the price will go up due to me finding more information on the proper age and exactly what I have.”
The frame horns suggest this is a CJ-2A chassis topped with a DJ-3A body and hardtop.

“Willy’s jeep. Needs work. Lots of good parts. Have title.”
The front springs have been outboarded some and I imagine the rear springs have as well. Looks like it has been lengthened, too.
