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 .
A reader contacted me after investigating this FJ. Supposedly this is all fixed up, runs great, and looks beautiful. The only things missing are the VIN, the pink slip and the title. Eventually, after the reader noted that, the seller offered to halve the price.
Does anyone recognize this vehicle? Could it be a little hot? Or, maybe the seller was just desperate to sell it.
BTW, if anyone knows of any FJs in California, let me know. I have a potential buyer.

I have the glass for the winshield, but not the gaskets that go with them. price is firm, but part trade for the right item is a possibility.”

Yikes! This might have been an authentic CJ-2A at some point . . .
“Very cool 1947 Willys CJ2A Jeep project for sale. I have had this jeep for 16 years and have recently started working on it again. I have lots of projects and am considering parting with this one if the price is right. This is an authentic 1947 Willys CJ2A and it is mounted on a 1974 Ford F250 Hiboy frame with Dana 60 Front and Rear Axles. The jeep is currently mocked up with a Chevy 454, Chevy SM420 4 Speed Granny Low Transmission, and Ford SM205 Divorced Transfer Case. We are very close to having it able to run and drive and have all parts necessary to do so including driveshafts. The project currently has 8 lug aluminum wheels with 36″ Goodyear Mud Terrain Tires (old but good shape still). I have suspension seats with brackets and mounting hardware for the front and a jeep forward folding rear seat. The CJ2A has been extended roughly 12″, cut was made at the mid-door seam and new diamond treadplate floor has been installed. I recently started fabbing the rollcage and front fenders and plan to make rear fender extensions to match the with of the fronts.”
“Ok, I have two Willy’s jeeps for sale. One is a 1951 and the other is a 1952. Both are projects that have a ton of potential. If you have ever enjoyed watching a late seventies show called “Rat Patrol,” these jeeps are for you! Imagine wearing your U.S. Army fatigues flying through the desert with a dog-rocket in your mouth! That is freedom brother! You and your son or daughter will definitely have an awesome time restoring these fine gems. Just imagine, the best quality bonding time with your offspring as you restore these treasures. When completed you will have one for you ,and one for your teenager. Then its off to the Mountains so that you can train your child on how to negotiate the roughed mountain trails. I cannot believe I am selling you not only these jeeps, but an experience with you family that will be passed down several generations.

(08/12/2011) This is a project, but it might be a deal considering the stainless tub.

There’s value here, but without a body I’m afraid the seller is going to take a hit on this project.
“1947 Jeep CJ2a. Started restoration from frame up. Have sandblasted and chassis black all steel support items. All parts are either bead blasted and painted , rebuilt or new. Every nut bolt and clip has been removed cleaned and painted. Too many new parts to list. Has clean title and vin on frame. Have only a few body parts that are salvageable so purchase of body is next and due to financial reasons that isn’t in the near future. Have over 5000.00 and three years invested. Asking 3900.00 pick up only. More info and pics upon request. All brake system and fuel system is new but is dry, didn’t add any fluids as didn’t know how long till it could be finished. Engine and drive train is rebuilt but greased until its to be driven. Have many other extra parts also.”
