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 $2500.
The body on this looks good for a North Eastern Truck.
“Has been in the barn for years and years. This Jeep is a great restoration project. I hate to part with it. For more info or to come take a look”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.
I’m thinking this might be a M-38? I think I see tool indents on the passenger side. Those tires are pretty worn.
“Selling a original 1946 Jeep Willy that runs and drives for $5,000.00. Only modifications is it has been converted to 12 volt. Almost all parts are new only thing that needs work is the rocker panels and floor boards are rusted.”
UPDATE: Last priced at $9500.
The Jeep looks nice enough, but let me remind potential buyers that 1. VE day was in May of 1945 and VJ day was in August of 1945; 2. 1948 comes after 1945 (umm .. this is self-evident, yes?); and 3., by the transitive mathematical property, this jeep, contrary to the seller’s claim, could not have played a role in WWII because it ended in 1945 and the jeep was produced in 1948.
“1948 Willys Jeep for sale!!! This car is in excellent condition and is a wonderful item for anyone who loves antique vehicles or wartime collectibles. This was used in WW2, but the engine has been replaced entirely, so its not just a lawn ornament. You can cruise town in this Willys. It is equipped with the canvas cover. Please contact me if you are interested. I’d love to show you the car or send you more pictures. Also, email me for more information on the vehicle; I’d be happy to answer your questions.”
UPDATE: Kevin from the UK wrote me today to say that he spotted the same CJ-2A Kevin saw while on vacation on Maui in 2002. Too funny! He also took a picture and provided it for our viewing pleasure. Thanks Kevin!
Steve was visiting Hawaii a few years ago and spotted this VEC CJ-2A on the island of Maui in Hawaii. There can’t be too many of these on the island!
Brett found another interesting deal in Utah. The seller labels this a 1952, but it looks like a VEC CJ-2A to me. It looks like it was also a column shift at some point.
“Sold As Is. 1952 CJ2A Jeep. Has 2 motors needs install. Asking 1000.00 or best offer.”

Doesn’t look too bad for $1000.
“Picked this up last year expecting this to be a “father and son” project…it turned out that neither of us had the time we thought we had. Son now wants a motorcycle or something “sportier” and I just want my driveway back. This Jeep needs to be completely restored and is not currently running. You could weld some sheet metal in the floor boards, reconnect everything, and bondo and paint it and it would pass for a while, but it is 50+ years old and would serve you better to really do some work on it. Aftermarket parts for this aren’t very painful…complete bolt on steel body kit runs about $3K from JC Whitney, a little less for fiberglass…if you want to bypass the patch, weld, and refinish route. Engine is easy to go through and lots of parts on the web. I have some makeshift seats (actual frame with a poly seat covering) and some miscellaneous parts to go along. Let me know your thoughts…I’m open to negotiation. Might consider a trade (for me, not my son)…possibly a running 60-70’s VW or a sportbike?? Check the link below for more pictures. ”
It’s got some rust on the grille, but the rest doesn’t look all the bad.
“57 Willys Jeep. Very rare, all original. Serious buyers only,please…”

(12/13/09) Check out this plow. This looks like a good deal.
“I am selling a 48 willys jeep for my aunt the plow lights and 4×4 all function great perfect for private use asking $2,000”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000
The engine is in the back, but this thing looks in good shape. It looks like a deal.
“CJ2 jeep 1946, this is a builder the engine is in the back, see photo. I think the engine has been rebuilt. I took off the valve or tappet cover and it is clean inside. The outside of the block is also clean.”
