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 $1000
(11/28/2011) This might be worth a look.
“1946.5 Willys . Not running. ”
This has the tool indents, but doesn’t have the rear floating hubs.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
“Recently retired and I have too many projects. I need to sell this one to help finish my other antique truck. This is an earlier 46 Willys with the 3 speed on the column. It’s all there and with a fresh battery and some gas it should start. I just replaced the stater switch and cleaned the gas tank. It will need to trailered or hauled and I can help with loading.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
(08/15/2012) The seller neglects to mention the lack of tool indents on the body.
“You are looking at my 1945 Willys Jeep with 3 speed on the column. Very sought after jeep as it is true to the descripition or history I have looked up on the Net as to column shift. There was only 1824 made the first year as they were made with the last of the war jeeps that came down assembly line. Now about this jeep. it was given a new body and paint, Paint color is harvest tan and if you go to color code for 1945 at kasier willys catalog it is a brown like color. it has had all wiring replaced, It is still original 6 volt but with new wires. Engine was gone through a few years back and purrs like a kitten. All numbers match as being the frame tag, inner hood tag and the dash tags. All shown in the pictures. There is no rust. Only problem area is around windshield frame as it might need fixed in a few years but does not look bad at this time. i also have the original hitch that goes to the jeep as it needs painted and bolted on. Really nice original hitch. I have had several comments on how unique it is and it turns alot of heads when it rides down the road. As many people see the old military jeeps from that year but hardly see a CJ2A civilian jeep today.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500
This needs some work. I don’t see any tool indents, but it does have a column shift.
“1946 willys jeep this is three on the tree colum shift with over drive this jeep is stock very rare runs great needs brake work some wiring”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
It looks like this probably had a column shift. It definitely has full floating rear hubs. It also has the square washers on the windshield and the MB like brackets.
“1945 Willys Only 1,824 Units built. Willy’s is in pretty good Shape, Transmission and rear end have been overhauled. It is a 4 cylinder flathead engine. Engine runs well.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500
(04/12/2012) This looks like a VEC Body.
“1947 Willys Jeep
Has a 4 cyl motor has been converted to 12 volt, has spin on filter, new Plastic gas tank, very little rust for its age!
runs and drive Great!
I have the clean Texas Title in hand”
No pics provided.
“This is a very rare late 45 willys jeep. California black plate,no rust. It has column shift,pto and king seely govoner. Original pasture green with yellow wheels Black top. .Runs and drives great.Everything is original on this jeep.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
This doesn’t run, but it has floating hubs, which suggests this might be a VEC. This doesn’t have a column shift.
“Nice little cj2a. NO rust, nice shape, not running”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(04/15/2012) This appears to be a VEC body. I wonder what the purpose of the mini roll bar loop.
“COLLECTORS ITEM – 1946 Willys Overland Jeep CJ2A. One previous owner 19,000 original miles, and runs great. Hi and Low Range 4WD. Warren hubs, heavy duty wench and the engine has small oil leaks.
