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 .
UPDATE II: It appears there were two models of the Cargo-Personnel Carrier. One brochure shows that the Willys-Overland Export Company was the only entity offering this no-door Cargo-Personnel Carrier internationally (no mention of “Willys Motors” on the end of the last page of the brochure, but the bottom brochure’s last page shows both names). Here are the brochures’ cover pages side by side:
Both are currently listed on eBay. Here’s the first:
May need a little work (seller mentions “some problems”), but looks in reasonable shape.
“1946 Willy’s CJ2c 4×4, This is a classic vintage jeep of Willy’s fame with its 4-134 “Go Devil” flathead engine. This engine was completely overhauled several years ago but has very seldom put on the road. Still starts and idles fine, but difficult acceleration, probably due to sitting too long and moisture accumulating in tank. Has five new correct military tires with less than 20 miles on them. Body is in great shape for a 72 year old vehicle. I have done many things to it over the 30 years I have owned it in order to maintain and give it many parts it didn’t have when I got it.
Has a best top on it which is easily taken down in 5 minutes because I think it looks so much cooler without the top. Transmission still fine as well as the four wheel drive and the high and low gears. Been a long time since I have driven on the roads but start it weekly to maintain it. There will be brake work to do. I had all new brakes, master cylinder and lines put in several years ago, but think all fluid has leaked out. Easy work for the right person. This would be an excellent jeep for someone who desires a full restoration or just to get it on the road again. I have really loved this CJ but it is time for someone else to enjoy. These are Hard to find. some problems but still worth a look.”
“1946 Willys
Runs and drives great, has 225 Oddfire V6, full top and bikini top, back seat. Has roll bar, winch, upgraded to GM Cadillac steering, I also have some parts like Dana 44’s for front and rear, tranny, few other things if wanting to build it. Shoot me an offer. Clean title pink in hand. Can drive it home but it is set up to flat tow as well.”
“I have my 1944 Flatfender willys jeep up for sale. No motor but i have the original transmission for it. body is in good shape. The restoration was started on it but never completed. I don’t have the title but i do have a clean vin plate and can put you in touch with the woman who has gotten titles for me for other cars before. Not interested in any trades.”
I’m no expert on these, but I think the correct hardtop should provide gas inlet access on the driver’s side? See this pic for an example: http://www.warwheels.net/M151muttHARDTOPLEONG.html . But, hey, it’s free!
“This ad is for a hardtop for an M151 army jeep. It is on the jeep and it will need to be removed. Call and arrange a time to take this away.”
