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 .
“She needs tires, seats, and the solenoid has issues. I was able to start it up and drive around the yard this spring. I think it has an L head 4 cylinder, gears feel really good. Jeep also comes with an old heater. CASH = TITLE no trades.”
(09/11/2012) Here’s a nice looking militarized CJ-2A.
“Attention re-enactors, parade goers, or attention seekers: 1948 Willys converted into a WWII MB Jeep. Restored completely 2 years ago with rebuilt original flathead L-134 “go devil” engine, rebuilt T-80 transmission, new gauges, gas tank, brakes, windshield, radiator, military non-directional tires, M1 Garand holster, new wiring, horn, added turn-signals, canvas, new solid tailgate and tire mount and jerrycan rack like the WWII MB, etc. Converted to 12 volt. Everything in this has been gone over and rebuilt with <5,000 miles on it. Over $10K in reciepts”
(09/17/2012) There might be some value here. It runs, but no title.
“1947 willys cj2a for sale. Not finding the time to finish the restoration. Body is vary solid for a 1947. The top end of motor has been rebuilt, Runs good, carb isn”t original, but i have the correct carter that needs a rebuild kit to put on it. 1st gear isn’t good but have a good replacement gear cluster to put in. Been sitting the last two years and recently gave it a jump and started rite up! The 6volt generator charges well but battery is shot. Brakes are down, may pump up? No title,”
(09/29/2012) This solid looking CJ-3A looks like all it needs is a paint job to be a good looking jeep. The nicely made half top out of boat material is very interesting too. Whoever made those could probably sell a few — it is hard to find bikini tops for the early CJ’s, especially ones that fit so nicely.
“I bought this Willys from my uncle about 5 years ago. He used it in an apple orchard for many years to pull apple wagons so it went with out license tags for MANY years. It was only driven during apple harvest season so it got few miles usage each year. He and I both always stored it in the garage and never drove it in the winter. He had the engine overhauled about 9 years ago when he forgot to put oil in it during an oil change. When I got it the tranny and transfer case growled terrible do to many years with bad boots on the shift levers letting in water and dirt. I installed rebuilts about 5 yrs ago and it now runs very quietly. It is used as a summer putt around vehicle here in Deadwood SD so has been seen by MANY in this area. It purrs around nicely at speeds up to 50 mi/hr with out the typical WILLY WOBBLE. Driven mostly around mountainous terrain with out heat problems. (I had the radiator boiled out before I put it on the road 5 yrs ago). Lights and brakes work good. New windshield and windshield hinge gasket 2 yrs ago. New plastic under seat gas tank (same design as original). New gas sending unit which does not register correctly–I think it might be for a 12 volt. Other gages work fine. New speedo cable but speedo JUMPS when connected (Maybe the wrong drive gear was put in during rebuild). Emergency cable is missing but other parts including handle are included. Has warn lock outs in the front diff. It shows very little rust. The frame and floor are in good condition. The SURRY top(2 yrs old-made of boat cloth) and frame comes off very easily so windshield can be folded down. This is a very nice little Willys which I am selling only because have another.”
(10/21/2012) This has no title. Seller is interested in trades, too.

“Project Jeep only missing seats and fuel tank (that way when I bought it). It will run, needs fluids put back in it. Tub is pretty rough, and has been taken off, frame was sandblasted and osphoed and undercoated. It has Samurai axels (front one needs put in, back one is in already). It is a project, that I do not have the time to finish anytime soon. $1000.00 firm. If I don’t sell him then thats ok, I will complete him in a couple years.”
