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 has a rear bench. That engine looks more like an f-head than an l-head.
“Lost storage, engine not running, have second engine flathead original type, complete but #1 main bearing spun. Have found original seats.”

The foundation for this jeep is a 1948 CJ-2A, but there are some CJ-3A parts here as well. Looks like a good price.
“Start 2018 off right by finally getting that vintage Jeep you’ve always wanted. The New Years resolution you can actually keep!
Up for sale is a 1948 Jeep basket case. I had planned on building this project for many years and it’s finally time for me to face the reality – it’s not going to get finished. I purchased this mess way back in 1998 and it’s sat in a warehouse since then. My plan was to do a restoration, so everything I have is original. If you know about 1946 – 1949 CJ’s you will know exactly what you are looking at. I am quite confident I have a 98% complete project here.
I have two tubs. The brown one is a CJ-2a tub which would have come with the ’48 frame. The red tub is a 1949 CJ-3a tub which the only difference is the wheel wells were shortened to allow the seats to be moved back 2” so the driver would have more leg room. I was going to use this tub for some panels to complete the ’48 tub.
I’m not sure if “basically complete” is accurate, but there certainly seems to be some parts here.
“2 jeeps for sale 1947 cj2a no title 750 also a 1966 cj5 with clean title 1500 both are basicly complete”

“So this is a 1948 CJ3A, titled as such with only two parts on it that are original. Everything else is from a samurai. Basically it’s a fiberglass jeep body, bolted onto a 1994 samurai frame with all samurai running gear. It was built to be ultra light, with the bench mark of below 1800 lbs which meets the legal requirements for a side by side (class IV UTV) to go on side by side only delegated trails. It’s also a fully insured street legal registered 48 cj3a (no DEQ to meet). The fiberglass body is also made to be 8” longer than a stock CJ3A has to accommodate taller drivers. Why a samurai? Everything on a samurai is built to be lightweight. The engine is fuel injected, aluminum block and heads, fully dressed weights 175 lbs…….. If you think bolting a chevy 350 inside a CJ2A is a good idea this rig probably isn’t for you. If you recognize the biggest advantage you can have off road is lightweight, we should talk. It takes the idea of “go anywhere” to a whole new level.

UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $8000.
It looks clean, though not restored quite to original.
“I’m selling my beautiful 1948 CJ2A. Restored to original condition. I drive it around town, but want to clear the room for another restoration. The engine, transmission, body and suspension all original. I have the bows for the top but never installed it. It has been converted to 12 volt. Runs great!”
