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 .
George forwarded this blog post about the Chang 46. It started production in 1959 and ended in 1963. There weren’t many made. They started with 38 in 1959 and by 1963 only 1390 were produced.
“San Francisco Car wreck photograph / 1947 Willy jeep on it’s side
this photo measures 8 x 10 inches. It is an original not a copy. There is some wear. This photo was used in the newspaper and has writing on the back. Shipping is free in the US”
“Original owner ordered it from the Toledo factory. Stored in a heated garage since day 1. 14,000 original miles. Probably the best example of a original CJ6 survivor. Paint still shines like new. Under the hood is near perfect. Original vinyl top windows are crystal clear. Maintained by local Jeep dealer. Still wears the original Goodyear Suburbanite tires it left the factory with. The seat covers are like new. It has been featured in our 2008 Jeep Classics Calendar and Vintage Truck Magazine.
It has a factory installed Ramsey winch on the front, wheel well cushions as well as a backseat and CB radio. The original owner had an ambulance service. This was his offroad ambulance and the 53 was its fleet number. He would make a run with it, bring it back and wash it down, back it into the garage and cover it up.
The pictures don’t do it justice. The paint is as shiney as the day it rolled off the line.”
“SELLING A 1950 NAVY JEEP FOR THE WIDOW OF MY FRIEND. THIS JEEP WAS FOUND IN A BARN YEARS AGO AND IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION; IT HAS BEEN IN HIS SHOP FOR 5 OR 10 YEARS AND IT RUNS OUT VERY WELL. ONLY SURFACE RUST. COULD BE MADE INTO A SHOW PIECE.
I have ridden in the jeep; it purrs like a kitten; starts right up although it has been 2 years since it has been driven.

For sale is a Willys-Overland 1947 CJ2A fully restored frame up, with original L-134 flat head motor. Engine serial #J98994, frame serial #96785. Tub is a repli-tub purchased direct from willys=Overland, but we have the original tub serial #CJ-2a 96785 data plate that goes with the vehicle to the new owner.
Restoration completed 2000-2001 by experienced vintage car restorer, and it has been garaged indoors ever since. Has only been driven for about 400 miles since the restoration. Painted pasture green to match original paint. New canvas on seats. No top bows. Converted to 12v system, with original rebuilt starter still in operation. Have the original 6v parts if someone wants to convert back. Also have 2 spare carbs and misc parts.
This Willys is very solid and sound, there are no problems mechanically or otherwise. Ready to drive, parade, park, hunt, or whatever. Starts right up without any hesitation every time. Selctro hubs. 4 wheel drive works smooth and easy.
This vehicle will go anywhere, climb anything, and do just about anything! Speedometer works, but probably needs a little calibrating. Gas gauge works sometimes, well, most of the time, but there is an alternate gas gauge included in the sale (24″ wooden dip stick, never lies and doesnt need calibrating).
Tires are new NDT 700-15 (non-direction tread) purchased from Coker Tire with about 400 miles of use, plus matching rubber for spare tire (no rim).
All major parts are original, the grill, hood, fenders, and windshield (new glass and seals) are all original and completely restored.
Currently licensed in OR with Oregon Antique Vehicle plates. Frame, and serial number data plate match.”
