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 .

It runs and drives.
“For SALE OR TRADE 1946 Willys Jeep cj-2a (CLEAN TITLE IN HAND) the price of $3500 is negotiable, as far as trades I will trade for a Kawasaki KLR 650 or similar endure type bike.
Has been converted to 12 volt. Engine has been replaced with the 134 F head. This is the engine that was used in the cj-3b’s among other vehicles, similar to the original flathead but the intake valves are in the head and the exhaust valves are in the block, providing slightly more power and reliability in comparison to the L head (flathead). This thing runs great, and has recently had these parts changed. (I have all of the receipts)
>starter
>fuel tank
>Distributor Rebuilt Kit (points, rotor, cap, condensor)
>fuel filter
>oil filter
>Ignition coil
>Spark plugs and wires
>The carb was just rebuilt by Thrasher Carb shop in Tulsa
all parts were purchased from kaiserwillys
This isn’t a show quality rig by any means, but this thing starts up right away, and idles and runs perfectly, the 4wd and transmission work perfectly also. Even the gauges work. Doesn’t leak all over the place, and would make a perfect hunting rig / work horse, or you could just use it for fun, this thing is a blast to drive”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800.
I’m just not sure how much value is here.
“1951 jeep cj3a”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $1800. This looks like a good price and includes a winch. Note the customized windshield, too. The seller did correct the V-6 to a Flathead 6.
(08/03/2012) It looks like the rear axle has been updated, so that part of the running gear isn’t original. The driver side entrance has been chopped a bit.
“1944 willys it has a flat head 6 motor,running gear is all orgianal,it has a big ass winch on it that works, runs and drives but needs to be restored…call 855-6091”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2300.
Some different paint might really help this cheap jeep.
“Price reduced, dont let a good deal like this pass you up. Make a reasonable offer.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
(06/17/2012) This appears to still need work, though the seller doesn’t mention what needs to be done.

From the Vale Valley Website comes this story of one brother buying CJ-2A #No. 23995 for another. It’s written by Raymond Bleesz. You can see pictures of his jeep on the CJ-2A Page.
It is said that the Willys Jeep won the hearts and minds of all those who served in World War II, and that the jeep won the war.
My 1946 CJ2A jeep, No. 23995, was in the assembly line of production when the war ended.
This jeep with its “Go Devil” four- banger engine, a body from the Willys Ford Overland Co. in Toledo, Ohio, was one of thousands produced during the war years and later into preproduction civilian jeeps at the end of the war.
In 1990, this jeep was given to me as a birthday gift by my brother, who had purchased it from a good old boy in Frederick, Md., towed it across country and presented it to me upon his arrival here in Edwards. . . . . . .Read more below
