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: **SOLD** Was $1500.
No drive train.
“1947 Willys Jeepster, 2wheel drove, no engine or trans, restorable condition. $1500 obo. Please no calls after 9pm”
Needs work. Engine runs.
“I had great plans to take a complete 1947 CJ2A w/Great Engine (I have video of the engine running), but it’s been for sale for about a year now and I would like to move it on. I should mention that it has the 1947 model year McCord heater, for the passenger compartment. It’s an option and I’m guessing that’s rare and would be somewhat collectible.
Price wise, my understanding is that the running engine alone should be worth about $1K. So to help move things along and make it easy, my thought is to sell the whole jeep for $1,000 – you get the good engine and all the rest of the original 1947 parts – no problem! I’m also open to offers, so if $1K is too much, what works for you? Another way to shave down the price a bit is for me to keep to few of the pieces (like the grill and windshield) and you can have the rest at a reduced cost.
All of these parts are located in Winona, MN and are available for you to stop by and see about anytime.
This price assumes that you will pick up and haul the jeep from Winona – delivery may be possible for an extra fee, just ask and we’ll see what can be worked out.
So, this would be a great winter project – maybe a family project or just something fun!”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $750.
Not a bad price.
“Good solid Bantam trailer. New LED tail tights and new 6 ply tires. Pulls great. Has tailgate. Safety chains, 2″ ball coupler.”
Not sure what value is here.
“Three Willy Jeeps for parts. Years are 1941, 1947, and a 1949. All three of the Jeeps are CJ2A.”

UPDATE: SOLD. Was $1000.
This ought to interest someone.
“Here’s the tub and front clip that I had planned to use to restore a 1947 CJ2A. I’ve had this on sale for about a year and I’d like to move it on.
Earlier this year my ad read: CJ2A body tub repaired with some alterations. Tail gate eliminated. Flat fender grill in good shape. Flat fender style hood in bar metal – straight but needs prep and paint. Good for custom build. $1,800 ($2.5K on eBay)
So at this point, I’m dropping my price to $1,000 (about 1/2 what I was asking) and if that’s too much for you, make an offer you’re comfortable with – no problem!
All of these parts are located in Winona, MN and are available for you to stop by and see about anytime.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $225.
I can’t tell if there is a set of four or five rims.
“I have forsale a set of turbine/hurricane style wheels for a ford. 225.00 obo. May trade thanks for looking..”
Price seems optimistic given the rust and mismatched top. This might also have a steering upgrade.
“1954 willy 3b high hood. Rebuilt motor and tranny. Original 4 cylinder, new radiator, windshield and brakes, line lock brake system. Both seats good shape ..no rips. No rust in floor board ect. Full cage roll bar.”

Colorado’s Steamboat Pilot newspaper welcomed the FC-150 into the Jeep family fold with this December 13, 1956, photo.
Looks nice. Sounds like the seller is flipping it after buying it at an estate sale.
“I have a friend that has a 1947 Jeep Willys for sale. The vehicle was purchased at an estate sale and now the owner is looking to sell.
You won’t find a cleaner Willys out there! Here are some of the details, however seeing pictures doesn’t do it any justice.
* Full frame off restoration
* Fresh white pearl paint
* New Top/Doors
* Original Motor
* 27K original miles
* Straight four
* Fires up and runs amazing
You won’t find a cleaner jeep anywhere!”
