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 .

I can’t quite tell which front hubs this has.
“1972 Volkswagen bug on a 1947 Willys Jeep frame and motor.
Runs good a lot of new parts, all new breaks.

John’s selling his rebuilt CJ-2A.
“Redone from the frame up!! Approximately 95 miles since rebuild completed. Perfect for hunting lease, trail riding or just cruising around the neighborhood. Converted front brakes to disk and added turn signals for safety. All drive-train has been completely gone through. It still has the L134 engine and three speed manual transmission with 5:36 gears. Warn hubs were added for use of low range without need to be in four-wheel drive. Tree inch suspension lift. 8,000 pound electric winch. Rear seat pedestals are small locking safe’s for storage.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
The seller indicates there are 2 CJ-2As for sale, but the pics only show one CJ-2A, though a CJ-3B sits in the background. The other “CJ-2A” is described as having an Fhead, so I suspect the 3B in the background is the other jeep for sale.
“2 – CJ2A Willys Jeeps;
One with factory winch and PTO. L head engine; starts and runs good, brakes – lots of rust!!
Second CJ2A complete with F Head engine, but motor stuck; better condition.
$2,500 for both or $1,500 for running machine.”
This Toyota body is sitting on a CJ-2A chassis with some updates.

(12/28/2017) Steve shared this one. Sell listed this as a 1949, but based on the serial number it was manufactured near the end of the 1948 run.
“Late Willys CJ-2A Jeep, manufactured shortly before switch to CJ-3A. Runs and drives well. Rebuilt engine. 12-volt electrical system. Operating Meyer snow plow with original hydraulic pump and custom-made reinforced mounting rig. Original Willys hood, tailgate, windshield, front seats and rear seat, with original-style vinyl covers by Beachwood Canvas. Repro CJ/M38 body tub has some rust but definitely repairable.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $325
Seems like some value here.
“Old Willy’s. Axles are good, and the engine will crank, but it doesn’t run and drive. Be Good yard art or use drive train for parts.
Update due to so many questions.
I have the original 134 engine. I have extra clutch, radiators, starter, generator, seat frames and original filters, etc. Some from this Jeep it and Other parts are from a 1948. All the parts go with it. I also have old registration papers through the 70s and 80s on it as well.
It is in rough shape. Very rusty body, for those who want a vehicle to restore, the body is beyond that point so look elsewhere.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
Peter noted that it looks like the driver side front spring is bent near the front shackle.
Ted shared this jeep. It has a few updates, including a spray liner on the interior and underside.
“Offered here is a 1946 Civilian Willys Jeep. This driver comes out of an estate and collection of fine automobiles. The in-house mechanic states that the engine and transmission have been rebuilt and the brakes are in good working order. Newer paint was applied and the vehicle shows well. The floors and undercarriage plus the inside of the fenders have been undercoated. A roll bar has been installed. The windshield glass on the driver’s side has a crack and will need replacement. Some paint bubbling was noticed also on the windshield frame. This is a no-nonsense little cruiser. Perfect for running around town, as a grocery-getter, a vehicle for advertising, parades or simply to show and enjoy. The vehicle is currently on display at the Murphy Automobile Museum in Oxnard, California.”
This has an early windshield. It also has a floor shift, though the pics don’t show if it was once a column shift or not.
“This is a very very early civilian jeep, perhaps the very first few that rolled off after the war as it still has the MB body. Originally came with the rare column shift but later converted to stick on floor. All original drive train. Starts right up but needs restoration. Body is very solid with some bondo. Original Arizona vehicle last licensed in 1970. A great project that can be worth getting into. Serious enthusiasts only please.”
