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 .
This looks like a pretty good price even with the wrong motor.

(09/12/2010) This seller sounds like he has a couple jeeps. Last year he drove back a ’46 CJ-2A from Oakdale to Winnemucca (when it stopped running).
“Selling 1945 willys jeep CJ2a. Last fall put on new tires, seat covers, correct muffler and hardware.Original items: Military style steering wheel, horn, oil filter, windshield tiltout hinges, and military rearend. Has correct windshield fold down wingnuts, vaccum wiper, passenger manual wiper, oil filter, spare tire mount, tailgate chains and Original oak blocks on hood. Frame solid, battery tray in good shape, has generator shield, master cylinder shield and working parking brake. All lights work, including dash light. Engine # 11594, located on right side of block behind oil filter, Body #1428, taigate #1428, serial # 11325, on dash and frame. tags on firewall missing because of, you know what, heater mod. and differentials I can make out date 45. Column shift missing and floor shift installed. T- 84 trans was used, which pretty much makes this a full WW-II chassis.”
Milleage is 66,900. After being around this jeep, I believe it to be original. Thats my guess, it may not be. Original color paster green, autumn yellow rims. Engine does smoke a little, It’s a WW-II smoke screen option, LOL. Floors solid, a little rot on bottom of hat channels ( very minimal) Steps are solid and hold when stepped on. Any questions please ask and left room for more pictures if there’s something you want to see. This jeep has ‘nt been restored, it’s in its original shape after 65 years. Thanks.”

I have a snow plow to match that can be purchased. Jeep can be sold without plow only, not plow without jeep.”
(06/20/2010) It looks like a very good restoration.
“A VERY CLEAN BEAUTY, TOTAL FRAME OFF RESTORATION, REBUILT MOTOR, EVERYTHING NEW (PARTS, SEATS, ETC) CLEAN TITLE, PROFESSIONALLY RESTORED, ASKING $15,000.00 OBO MORE PICS AVAILABLE.”
The column shift has been converted and an F-head stuck into it, but otherwise looks in good shape.
“Vintage 1946 Jeep CJ2A. One owner since about 1947. Regularly serviced. Garaged for all of its life and not used for the past 25 years. Engine has been started regularly. First civilian model after WWII. Had shifter on steering column, but has been converted to a floor shift. Original flat head engine has also been replaced with the overhead valve four cylinder ‘hurricane’ engine. Large rear mounted PTO winch. Otherwise, most everything else is stock. In great shape with a ‘Koenig’ steel top. VERY little rust, if any? Repainted, upholstered and gone over mechanically in about 1956. Seats can use new upholstery. Carburetor rebuilt in 2006. Doesn’t burn oil or leak. Tires are all pretty good. Rims have a chrome ring on the rim. Everything works good. Runs great. Great for original restoration or drive it as is. Serious parties please E-mail to discuss price.”
This looks solid. I can’t tell if it needs a paint job on the side or if that’s there by design.
“This jeep runs great. 51 Willys with a 327. Edelbrock intake and carb. Dana tranny & transfer case. rancho suspension. New Optima red top. new seats and new top. everything works. Fun to drive.”
