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.
(03/28/2019) This has an odd hardtop.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1900.
(03/08/2019) Body might be in good shape, though it’s had some work done.
“I have a 1948 Jeep Willy’s for sale, there is no engine, but it has a Chevy transmission. The body’s in good shape and would make a great project. What you see if what I have!”
Looks in good shape. Has a variety of updates.

“1947 Willys CJ2A. $15,000/give a call. Message for phone number.
Great drive with perfect amount of power. Located in Centralia. Here are some highlights, must see to really appreciate.
See photos
-Oddfire Buick 231 V6
-turbo 350 auto
-Arctic top
-like new adjustable bucket seats w/ modification for more leg room. I am 6’2” and fit just fine.
-Two full size fuel tanks under each front seat
– 3:73 dana 44 rear
-GM Power steering/tilt column’
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $14,500.
It appears to have a CJ-3A frame (no gussets).
“I am selling my 1947, restored, CJ2A to make room for another project. This is one of the nicest 72 year old CJ2A’s you will find around. Obviously there is no rust. I don’t need to sell it, I could make everything fit if I need to. Everything works except the driver side vacuum wiper that I need to look at. The engine has been rebuilt and runs amazing. These old CJ’s are getting very hard to find, especially in this condition. There has been a lot of money put into this Jeep and it shows. The frame and body tags are on it. I have used this mostly for parades and just driving the grandchildren around. I am asking $14,500 OBO. If you have thought about restoring one, you will realize how reasonable this price is.”
Both look rough. The red one has an ID from Missouri.

“Two late 45 early 46 CJ-2A Willys VEC very early civilian Jeeps. The red one has matching body and tailgate numbers as seen in the pics (15007), three dash plaques, and two vin data plates (24662) on the firewall. It also has the key in coil, all column shift linkage and a good floor shift cover plate. The blue one also has matching body and tailgate numbers as seen in the pics (6469) but has no vin data plates. It does not have the key in coil, but it does have the little toggle switch under the dash for the parking lights. The column shift linkage has been removed under the hood, but the column is in it. Both have good grill marker lights. The rolling chassis is good with good front bumper bracket, rear bar, another column shift trans, t-case, drive shafts and axles. There is no number on the chassis. I also havedraw another column shift trans and transfer case to go along with this package. The rolling chassis has two mutt wheels and two 16″ wheels, the red one has one 16″ wheel, all others are 15″. $2500.00 OBRO for whole package.”
Has some Cutlas PowerLok hubs.

Looks like a customized Sears hardtop, as the windows are larger than I’ve seen in other Sears tops.
“I have a 1946 jeep willys that is in rough shape. I took possession of the vehicle after it had been left in a building I purchased. I do have the title for the willys. Everything is with this willys(drive train, interior and any other bits you could think of) so it would be a great project or parts car. this willy has the inline 4 “go devil” engine in it that I have got to fire up and run. It is also sporting a hard top and doors, I am uncertain if its homemade or if it had been bought out of a catalog. It has a flat tow bar on the front of it as well as a vintage meyers plow set up and pump, this jeep will also come with the plow. Looking for $2800 or best offer also open to trades”
UPDATE: Was listed on eBay. Only the Boom and Winch are for sale. NOT THE JEEP!
