About eWillys
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.
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 .
Back fenders have been cut, but is supposed to be solid otherwise.
“1947 willys jeep body restored condition. the pics are of it covered in dust but it’s been stripped down, repaired, primed and painted. back fenders have been cut for larger tires. can be fixed if that’s what you want but I was going to make a crawler with it. also have a 67 bronco chassis to go under it with a 302 and a granny four speed if anyone is interested in the whole set up..”
The good: Drivetrain is rock solid. Engine smooth with no knocking, ticking or smoking. 4WD high and low good. Transmission good.
The bad: Well, look at it
Classic barn find. Has never been on the road, has never had a plate. Was sold back in the day as a farm implement and then spent a lot of its life at a cabin in Wisconsin. I have the title from 1979 and my Indiana title all clear and normal.
1947 Willys CJ 2A. Runs and drives good, has original L-head engine. 4×4 drive train works well. I have owned the jeep for the last 16 years and in the last year replaced the head gasket and installed a new master cylinder. Brakes work but wheel cylinders need some attention. Has 6 volt system and needs a battery. Title and registration current.”
“Multiple willys jeeps, a scout, and a dj5 postal jeep for sale
I’ve collected many parts jeeps and am considering thinning the collection
I’d prefer not to separate the many Engines, transmissions, transfer cases and axles but money talks
and prices begin at $1000 and go up from there I will respond to messages so let me know what you’re interested in and I have other parts available but not listed or shown”
(08/21/2014) “Have a 1948 for sale, she is very pretty and has original 4cyl engine. I could rattle on but the pics should be the best way to advertise her. Have a soft top as well. Fact is I would really like the Willys to find a good home, just don’t have garage space for her. Don’t have room to keep this anymore, price is negotiable. Any questions drop me an email.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500. See Glenn’s comment about the unusual rear PTO gearbox on this.
“We are selling a 1948 Jeep CJ2A. It was converted to 12 volt years ago but the gauges were never switched so they do not function. It has a power take off unit out of the rear. Other than that, it is stock. It has rust over several areas, though none are severe. There is no top for it anymore but the windshield is still fine.
It has a new carburetor, new brake lines and new brake pads. The gas tank is out of it but has been cleaned and the welds tidied up. The engine is a 4 cylinder, and has always performed perfectly in my life time, though it has not been started for the past 5 years since the fuel system has been apart. The tires look to be original so I do not know how much longer they might last.
There is one original seat frame but no cushion and two new boat seats that will easily bolt to the body.
The vehicle was purchased by my grandfather in the 1960’s and used as both a commuter vehicle for several years and then as a farm vehicle after that.”
“1947 Willys CJ2A (Civilian Jeep Model 2A) it has the original style 4 cylinder engine (I think it is called a T block)
– grandpas jeep been owned for well over 35 years in family
– steering assembly upgraded and a new clutch.
– steering gear is new
– engine had new valves and rings a few years back (but not very many miles given use)
– clutch also replaced a few years back (again not that many miles)
– barn stored (better than outside).
– less than 200 miles per year have been put on this jeep (its a vehicle that is stored mostly at a second home)
– pink slip in hand
– mileage not exactly known as odometer is not working.
– runs well but needs a bit of TLC (there is an oil lease but its a jeep from the 40s go figure)
Strong running engine .. but it sits for most the year outside of its 200 miles every year. . will make a great restoration project for someone!”
