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: **SOLD** Was $7500.
Since I’ve had it I’ve put a couple thousand miles on it and replaced the master cylinder for the clutch and brakes. I’ve driven it on the freeway and while the odometer is obviously off, my buddy said we were doing 80-85. I actually think it does better on the freeway.
I’m going to list issue first –
UPDATE: Price dropped to $3000.
(06/15/2016) Seller indicates there is some rust.
“Barn Find Jeep. Some rust in pan. Had Brakes and tires done by Nelson Tire in Hood river. Front brakes still sticking. Smokes when started but runs well after warm-up. Coil keeps burning out..”

has a replacement body. Not restored to original. I wonder if it’s actually a 3A?
“Completely restored Willy Jeep..
I must see.
Selling for $12,500”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
This is a project that includes an extra body.
“The body is in Good shape with no rust or rust holes and has been re forced. It Was a frame up build with everything new on the suspension and breaks. A vortec 4.3 v6, full roll cage, fuel cell. Also have new gauges for everything and a spare body, new aluminum radiator. But miss the window and frame, steering shaft needs to be hooked up, lights wired, exhaust installed, cooling system hooked up.”
No pics provided.
“I have a 1947 jeep willys for sale. It has a 3speed Manual trans 4×4 high and low with lockers. It has a 350 Chevy small block v8. Runs great fast and fun! Has a tow hitch on the back.”

(04/29/2017) Runs.
“This is one hell of a find! 1947 Willy’s runs pretty good with it’s V6 engine 3speed Manual. Asking $3,000obo”
Blaine spotted this collection of four hundred vehicles for sale. At least one is a later model CJ-2A.

Given the new stuff, this is worth a look.
“It’s with great regret that I have to sell my jeep Willys before I could get to it. I have another build that’s going to take all of my attention this year. Literally selling this for exactly how much i have in it which is $3200 firm! I have $1000 in new era correct rims and tires. $700 in restoration parts and paint. As well as a new gas tank. Clear TN title. 1947 jeep Willys drum brakes are disconnected or inoperable. I have only found a couple surface rust spots on the frame. Which is amazing for a cj2. Previous owner said the jeep drove to here house two years ago on its own and was under a tarp ever since. Overall great shape, will be worth a lot even partially restored. Do a broad search you won’t find a better deal!”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $600.
There seems to be value here.
“Here is a rolling chassis, tub, radiator, transmission, and other Willys parts for sale. Would make a great project!”
Could be worth a look.
“1947 Willys Jeep CJ2 body. Has the two front fenders, tailgate intact, NO hood, grill, frame or motor. $500. It has issues on the one side, the passenger side, they added sheet-metal and Bondo. ”

Nice Sears top, but the rest needs more work
“350 motor, hard top, 4in lift. Need restoration finished. Call with questions”
https://madison.craigslist.org/pts/6125080213.html
The paint looks a little odd in that last pic of the tailgate. I can’t tell if it has been touched up or if it’s a reflection (I think it is the latter). I’m also a little puzzled about the PTO bar. It looks like it sits at an angle?
“For sale is a Beautiful 1948 Willys CJ2A Jeep. Has 72,000 original miles. Runs and Drives perfectly. Converted to 12 volt, 4 wheel drive high and low. Has brand new military tires, new brakes, new battery, full soft top and doors, roll bar, and new interior. Gets looks and questions every time we drive it.”
