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 .
Listed as a 1950 CJ-2A.

“350 Chevy Motor
350 Automatic Transmission
Headers
New seats and top, stored in garage.
Body has some rust.
Needs front transmission seal and carb. rebuild.
Was running when parked. Owned 12+ years.”
Based on the serial number, I’d say this is a 1950 Cj-3a, not a 1948 CJ-2A.

“1952 Willys Army Jeep, off frame restorations, model 452 – GBI, F Head L4 – 134 cubic inch, 3 speed transmission, 48,446 miles original and rebuilt engine at 46,806 miles in 1996, must see to appreciate. Road ready!”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $4000.
(07/06/2019) It’s listed as a 1945, but that’s a DJ-3A body.
“Frame off restoration, 500 miles on marine V-6 engine, 600 CFM carb, new clutch, brakes, tires & seats with 4-point harness, Pantera exhaust, new aluminum radiator, 1988 rear-ends, custom rear storage, roll bar, off-road lights, lighted whip, car cover”
Looks good. Is that a storage box in the rear cargo area?

“Frame off restored 48 willys jeep flat fender Extremely nice condition Contact us for more information Located in Massachusetts Other prewar cars as well must go all restored”
UPDATE: The consensus is that this is likely a 3A.
This has a governor cable.

“Willy’s Jeep needs work only real rust is by doors on floor pan”
This may be a combination of MB/GPW and a CJ.

“1948 Jeep Willys. Runs. Great for putting around town or to use as a hunting rig. He’s hauled many a deer out of the woods! I have a clean title.”
Lacks the frame-to-bumper gussets, so it could be a very late 2A or a 3A.

“1949 Willys jeep in good shape runs and drives good. Seat dosent come with it. All tires hold air all original 3 speed with reverse high low tranfercase. Clean title. Would trade for a willys wagon”
Could be a good price. It runs, but no brakes.

“Selling my willys Jeep cj3a! Awesome little Jeep that is in pretty good shape!! Not nearly as rusty or beat up as most I looked at when
I was in the market! Almost all original. Running and driving. The original flat head 4cyl starts
Up and runs good, I haven’t even cleaned the original Carter carb! (Although I’m sure it could use a carb clean and a tune up after sitting for many years) the original gas tank is not rusted out like most. The engine does smoke a bit but is very strong, I think it could be old gas in tank or oil making it smoke. The transmission shifts great and stays in all the gears. Clutch works as it should. Jeep drives straight. Brakes do not work!
Really neat Jeep that would be fun to clean up, I just don’t have time with a few other Jeep projects going on.
No scams.
First come first serve”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.
(09/02/2019) Springs have been reversed. Could be worth a closer look.
