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 .
“‘47 Willys CJ2A with a Kubota v2203 turbo diesel engine swap. I used an Overland diesel swap kit. http://overlanddiesel.com/ It has the stock 3 speed T-90 transmission and Dana 18 transfer case, front lock right locker with locking hubs and an open rear end. Front disc brakes. Everything works and it works well on the roads. You could drive it home but the gears limit top speed. I have a ton of spare parts that will go with it for the right price.”
“Custom built 48 Willys CJ2A, ground up build, only things untouched are hood and tailgate. Fully boxed in frame, shackle reverse in front, custom lift, lifted springs in rear, spring over in front. 31″ of suspension travel.

“Well darn I have way too many projects and hope these could be put together and make one real nice FC. I have two FC 150s narrow track for sale. the green one is a 1957 , oregon title in my name, head off and missing, no box but otherwise fairly complete. Windshield in good and not much rot. good east Oregon unit. the other one is I think about the same year, rot in corners, no engine , extra trans and transfer, no glass NO title on that one. $ 7500 for the pair. I am not interested in selling just one. If I keep them and get the time I will build one out of the two. Firm on price.”
“1948 jeep cj2a v6 New carburetor, New aluminum radiator.don’t know what engine it is runs great good clutch and Tran stops slowly fresh oil change needs”
“Nice clean jeep with lots of extras! 4.3 fuel injection V6. Dana 44s front & rear with lock rite lockers. Disk breaks on all 4. On board air, power steering, four speed, 8,000 pound warren wench, zero rust.”
“1946 Jeep cj2a Story that came with it this was “The hunting Jeep. Had an engine swap late 70’s early 80’s. Said to have a 350 v8 from a late 60’s early 70’s corvette that had been in a wreck.” Firewall is not cut out.. Very solid.. Little rust.. Engine will need overhauled.. Transmission shifts into gears. Jeep is very much a project. Does not run. Does not drive. Top and doors need reupholstered but frame work is there. Has removable center seat! Needs a new windshield frame and front hubs. This was a running driving unit before it sat in a field for years after original owner/builder passed away. Great start for restoration, needs to go to someone that’ll get to it sooner then I will hate to see it sitting. Trade for aluminum boat or 1962-1973 Ford Truck.”
“1968 Willys Jeep CJ5. Comes with extra fenders, axles, and wheels/tires. Has tip out windshield and comes with an extra one. Bucket seats are included.”
Jim shared this good looking Tux Park. It’s got some patches on the floors, but some floor mats ought to hide those just fine. There may be paint on the windshield hinges.
“Runs and drives well Rare column shift About $4K in parts replaced as follows (I have receipts) Front bumper rechromed by Sandy’s of Syracuse New BESTOP – never been wet Front seats reupholstered New Saturn overdrive Battery less than 1 year old NOS correct speedometer Electric wipers (I have old vacuum units) New carburetor New emergency brake shoes, hub caps and other new parts Paint and minor body repairs done by previous owner about 10 yrs ago Reason for selling – doesn’t get driven – too many toys Eight 14 seven 35 three 111”
Many thanks to long-time reader Dave Nelson for sending me this rare copy of ‘Jeep’ News. While there is no date stamp that I could find, there is a reference to an April 1946 study in one of the articles; yet, none of the jeeps pictured has the later 2A grille. So, I’m going to guess this is a summer 1946 document.
Also strange is that this wasn’t published out of Toledo. Instead, the mail address is listed as “Jeep” NEWS, Room 700, 305 East 45th South, New York 17, NY.
Finally, also strange, is that a colorized version of this was also produced and it included a reference to the magazine being Vol 1 No 1. If there was a second ‘Jeep’ News made, I have not seen it. My guess is that this was meant to be an advertising piece for dealerships, but it didn’t pan out, so was pulled after one (or a few) issues.
I published this last year
Evan Gillenwater posted the cover of this magazine to Facebook. He seems to think it came from Furgason’s Motors in La Grande, Oregon. The magazine was found at an antique store in New Hampshire.

Mike shared this mostly stock CJ-3B. It looks like this has a swing-type tire carrier on the back (explains the odd colored swatches on either rear side of the body.
