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 $1500/strong>
(12/13/2011) This looks like it still has the column shift mechanism on it, though it’s been switched to a floor shift.
“46 Willys CJ2A Jeep. All stock original. Needs work but runs. Asking $1500.00 or best. Call 1-630-862-4295 for more information or to come take a look. Thank you for looking.”
Fabulous deal! This will go quick. It even runs! I want it!
“1946 Willy’s CJ2A Jeep. The good – I brought this up from Colorado so it is not a complete rust bucket , has been converted to 12 volt, runs and drives enough to be loaded on a trailer. The Bad – Brakes are dried up and will need rebuilt, Flywheel ring needs replaced. This jeep sat in a field for 15 years, I changed the oil, lubed the cylinders and primed with fresh gas and it fired right up. Sounds real smooth once you get past the old gas. I have driven it around the yard to move it , but never no distance due to No Brakes. Great for Parts or to Fix up. Asking 700.00 obo will provide bill of sale or can assist with title work.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
This needs some turn signals/running lights in the front. Otherwise, this looks nice.
“Buick V6 motor, truck 4 speed with granny low, positraction, dual fuel tanks, power steering.”

It runs and drives.
“1946 willys CJ-2A, original column shift, It runs & drives, strong little engine. Body is rough and rusted out in places.. Ramsey 8000lb winch included. Also have lots of spare parts, including another engine and tranny, grilles, differentials, wheels, frames, you name it, i probably have it if its for a Willys. would like to make a package deal for a fair price. engine, tranny/transfer case and drivetrain are worth at least, or more than the asking price, check ebay and you will agree.
$ 1,200.00 cash or best offer for jeep ONLY, with extra parts for sale if you want to deal, im sure we can make a deal thats attractive and fair. I will consider delivery within 75 miles if we make a deal on jeep and some of the extras.”

(01/23/2012) I’m going to guess this has the tool indents on it based on the seller’s description.
“I have a jeep from the late 40’s for someone who needs the parts. This is one that was made on the same assembly line that made the jeeps for WWII. Email me if your interested. Thanks. jeremiah estes http://s258.photobucket.com/albums/hh244/jestes70/”
