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.

“This is my 1946 Willys CJ2A Jeep. It has been previously been stored in a barn for the past 25+ years and I are looking to sell. Everything is original except for the tires and rims, which makes this truly a barn find. There are not many more like this one. Original 4 cylinder motor, 4 wheel drive, 3 speed manual transmission. It is currently not running, and the motor is seized up. Although, I have not done any work to it. This Jeep will make for an awesome project or a great restoration vehicle. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3750.
(06/13/2016) Has no title. No glass in windshield. Needs
“This is a fairly pure 1946 CJ2A. Biggest modifications seem to be the tail gate has been replaced with a solid panel with gas can and spare tire mounted there. Electrical system is 12 volt with alternator. Carb has been rebuilt, starter replaced, new gas tank and lines installed. New master cylinder, steel and flex brake lines installed. Starts and runs good. Brakes work. Shifts well, four wheel and transfer case shift and function well. No glass in windshield, tires all hold air but will soon need replacing, Has a heater installed but condition is unknown, lights are not hooked up, Body is rough but better than most of these I’ve seen. Would be an easy restoration from this point. No title, sold with bill of sale only, Because it is 70 years old it is sold “as is, where is” with no guarantees.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $700.
(07/14/2016) No engine.
“1946 Willys cj2 jeep. Rolling chassis project.”

Listed as a 1945 CJ-2A, it is more likely an early ’46.
“Great running and driving 1945 WWII era Willys Jeep CJ2A. Original Kaiser Supersonic flathead 4 cylinder and all original running gear. Owned by my US Army Veteran 86 year old dad. The lettering is vinyl, his old unit numbers etc. It received a major overhaul 20 or so years ago, wiring, brakes, shocks, all rubber hoses, brake lines etc, converted to 12 volts with alternator, 5 matching correct military tires. At the same time it got new rings and bearings, and valve job. Everything works as it should, high/low range, 4×4, lights, turn signals, horn, gauges etc. Dual gas tanks. New battery, fresh out of long storage. Paperwork is current. Clear title. Old paint, it’s a 20 footer. I have the top bows, not shown. Needs nothing. Oh, except wipers. And a new home.”
