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 .
This ad indicates it has been listed for three years. So, unclear if this is still available or not (but it’s the first time I’ve seen it under this link.
“Rebuilders dream! 1947 Willys CJ2A Jeep. All original. Body, motor and drive train in good condition but it hasn’t been started in a number of years. Seats need re-upholstered. Various new/spare parts included as well as owner’s manual and rebuilder’s manual. Original wheel rims included.”
“1948 Willys Jeep For Sale. This Jeep has sat in a storage facility for 20+ years. Because it’s sat for so long I’m sure it needs some TLC to get it running well.”
“47 Willis cj2 some restoration has been done in good shape does need a new distributor or the one on it rebuilt. Not a reproduction. Will entertain serious offers”
“My family has an old jeep, it’s a relic that has been very hard for us to let go. It’s a 1947 Willys CJ-2a that’s been sitting in our garage for 30+ years. Was my great uncles. We wish we had the funds and resources to get this amazing piece of history drivable but it’s not realistic right now. The body is intact and everything is original besides a camo paint job my dad did a long time ago.. It doesn’t run and needs a complete overhaul because of how long its been sitting in our garage.
Fortunately, there are a lot of manuals online on how to do it.
I would love to see this jeep find a home to someone who would take good care of it and someone who wouldn’t mind staying in contact with my family so we could see the process of it being restored. and possibly have a ride in it once it’s finished being restored 🙂
Feel free to contact me for more details if you have any questions or concerns.
The buyer will have to come over and tow it themselves. we will do what we can to make it as easy as possible.”
“As far as these go, it has a very solid and straight body. No rust of consequence, lots of great parts, tub, etc. Would make a great donor body or project to build. I do not know the exact year as I do not have a title. Bill of sale only. A past owner repowered this Willys using an early mustang 6 cylinder, it is installed and all hooked up. It “ran when parked”, but not drivable. The project was never completed and it has been sitting for many years. The motor does turn over. It needs a new home as I no longer have time for it.”
This runs. It’s got a late model 2A grille. The data plates look to be early CJ-2A at around 28XXX. The steering column had a shifter, but it’s been converted to a floor shifter. This last tool indents. So, I suspect at least some of this is early CJ-2A.
“1948 Willys CJ2a. Good shape, yard runs and drives. Comes with a ton of extra parts. New tires, radiator, wiring harness, etc. Has early Ford GPW engine installed. Lost interest in the project and would like to see it go to a good home. Clean and clear title in hand. Serious inquiries only, please don’t waste my time”
‘1948 CJ2A Willys Jeep Project, rebuilt L Head 134 Motor. 3A windshield and grill. It has most of the running gear. It needs floor pans. No Title. Cash only. $2,500 firm.”
Bill spotted this refurbed jeep listed as a 1948 CJ-3A. It looks in good shape for the price. The engine has a 3A/M-38/DJ-3A oil filter holder, so either the year or the model is incorrect.
“This 1948 Jeep CJ 3A is an original with updates to the exterior and interior. The owner has had it for 5+ years. The vehicle is drivable and is not regularly driven.”
“48 Willy’s Clean title Current reg 327 small block Chevy New wheels and tires Roll bar New full exhaust. Selling for my father, too tall to drive it comfortably. $12,500 Located in Calistoga ca”
