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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
It’s a column shift. Might be a VEC.

(01/17/2013) It looks good from this side, but no pics of the indents.
“1946 CJ2A #13241, Total Restoration to original condition after having been in the Navy in the Philippeans in 46. Column shift. Have all old parts. Odometer 2 mi. I have hauled on trailer to shows. Will consider offers.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500.
It’s a nice looking flattie and it’s serial number is early, but the lack of VEC details reduces the importance of its early roots.
“This is one of the first 1,000 civilian Jeeps made in 1945. Serial number is 10984, making it the 984th or 983rd Jeep made, depending on which source you read. (Some articles state the serial number began at 10,000 and others state it began with 10,001.”
Listed as a ’45, it looks more like a ’46.
“This is a rare 1945 Willys CJ2-A. The vehicle is in need of a full restoration. Engine turns over and will start just needs to be tuned up.”

The motor runs. It’s early enough to have rear hubs. But, it’s rough.

(01/14/2014) It’s listed as a ’48, but has a serial number of 12275. It has the early windshield, data plates, and rear hubs. Looks solid.
