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 .
This must be sold. Someone may get a good price on this. I can’t tell if it runs or not.
“as is, we’re moving and its to be sold for asking price or b/o needs to be sold please call (no e-mails) Art (408) 648-3943 or Tony (408) 836-7360”

Here’s a pretty good looking project. It appears some good work has already been done.
“47 CJ2A needs to be assembled. 1.Frame needs brake cylinder kits installed. Have kits. 2 Body has section in tool box under passenger seat that needs patched otherwise it needs small dings fixed. Its in very good condition. 3. Has good windshield and grille and fenders and tailgate. Just need to be bolted on. 4. Engine was supposed to be rebuilt. I put new gaskets in it but ran into problems when I tried to put the oil pump in. It ruined the gears on the pump but have a pump that gears can be taken off of. Not sure what is the problem there. May need a new cam or just a better gear?. Flywheel has been turned and ready to install. Have 16″ rims with old tires for it, but the 15″ tires for pushing it around go with it. Have a steering wheel but needs to be epoxyed. I have too many projects right now so I decided to sell it, but will keep it if I can’t get what I have into it out of it. Body and parts are really nice condtion.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3600
“This is a 1946 Willys CJ2A Jeep with spare parts. The tub was taken from the frame and repaired a number of years ago.. Both tub and frame are solid. Has brand new fuel pump and gas tank. Carburetor needs cleaning or adjust because it wont stay running. It starts right up. Good tires and wheels. It has a farmer paint job you might want to redo. Front windshield is here. Newer wiring harness is installed. Lights work, but parking need to be hooked up. Brakes good. Clear title.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000
ALWAYS DOUBLE CHECK THE VIN … THIS WAS A FUN ONE: The seller noted on ebay that this is a ’57, but it has the older, pre’57 dash. That raised a flag. So, I looked closely at the VIN: The first set of numbers are 55268 instead of 453 GB2. That VIN actually belongs to a 1956 Pickup Truck 6 cyl (226 ci) with 4wd with a serial number of 33836. See this service bulletin for the details.
“Very original Willys CJ3B. No body lift, original 4cyl engine, manual lockers on front, 3 speed trans. Color is Red, original upolstry in great shape and this has rear bench seat. Tool box under passenger seat. 4 good tires – spare is for decoration. Has AM/FM cassette and Jensen speakers under dash on firewall. Top is serviceable. No Bondo.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000
(09/03/09) It looks ready to go.
“1953 Willys hi hood. 4 cylinder, 3 speed, 2 inch lift, 31 inch tires, Warn 8274 winch, K-line soft top, roll cage, custom spare tire rack with fuel can holder, and connfer storage rearseat. 2nd owner. Accept cash only. $5000 obo.”
UPDATE: I called Steve (see below) and he had a perfect engine for me, a 1985 Buick 3.8L for only $199. Unfortunately, I waited until Saturday to go see the engine and it was sold by then! However, someone else responded to my Ad. As part of a parts liquidation they bought, they have a pair of rebuilt heads that are exactly what I need. So, this should work out perfectly (I should have them by Tuesday and will provide an update then). Hopefully, this resolves the issues with my engine!
(03/25/2010) I placed a I-need-heads-for-my-buick-v6 ad on Craigslist tonight. I got responses right away. I also located an engine (and tranny) for $125, a brand new rebuild engine in Kennewick for $500, and a running engine in Tacoma for $100. It’s been a good day for parts hunting!
Steve contacted me. He’s local (actually lives in Eagle, Id). He’s liquidating a bunch of rebuild motors with new re-manufactured blocks. They are all being sold for $199. You can read more about these motors here: http://boise.craigslist.org/pts/1650718277.html
If you like something you see in that list, let me know and I’ll check it out.
It looks like a parts jeep.
“Project Willys CJ2a jeep. The wheels in it are not included, just there for rolling it around the yard. The wheels pictures in front of it are included, there should be a fourth. I haven’t tried to run it but engine and drive train appear to be there and intact. Please reply though craig’s list if you would like to come see it. Ed”
