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 .

Seller wants to sell everything but the frame. But, the frame has been patched (at least on the driver’s side), so why not just start over with a new frame? I don’t know …

“I am wanting to do a total over haul on my 1946 willys jeep so I need to sell almost everything off of it such as the motor, transmission, axles, brakes, two gas tanks one in the rear and one under the drivers seat, radiator, wheels and tires, roll cage and suspension. If I didn’t list something that you want then just ask I might sell it but I’m wanting to KEEP the entire frame, shell, rack, and winch.
Some details on the parts, can provide tons more pictures and anymore info upon request! All prices are before shipping costs.
Engine: Buick Even Fire V6, brand new edelbrock 1901 AVS2 4 barrel carberator with electric choke, brand new edelbrock 14” air cleaner, brand new spark plugs, brand new edelbrock phenolic carburetor spacer, polished valve covers, stainless steel long tube headers, power steering. PENDING
Radiator: Crossflow aluminum radiator, it definitely kept the engine cool on those long days of crawling. $125
Transmission: Believe it’s a t86 or a t98 with a t18 transfer case and a warn overdrive. Has a total of 4 shift levers, insanely good for going anywhere in the mountains. SOLD Front axle: wide track DANA 30 out of a 70’s CJ5 with 11” disc brakes. Brakes are in really great shape just very minor surface rust not pitting what so ever. Warn manual locking hubs. SOLD Rear axle: Offset DANA 44 out of a 1971 mail Jeep. SOLD
Suspension: I believe that it has 3 or 4 inch lift on it, perfect for crawling. Not to tall at all to make it too heavy. Believe it’s stock leaf springs, shocks probably need to be replaced. SOLD
Roll cage is a bolt in cage, possibly might fit a CJ5 as well. $800”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(11/03/2022) The back of the body has unusual mods. I”m not sure what’s going on here. The tailgate appears replaced.

“If your looking at this add most likely you know a bit about these old jeeps and maybe even a bit about the Bantam trailer that goes with.
The Jeep runs but the transmission won’t go into gear, however it does roll so it’s not stuck in gear. It seems mostly original albeit some repairs done over the last 75 years. It needs attention at every point so it’s a good candidate for a restore I think. I’ve got a green title for it.
Cash only, no trades
Bantam trailer can be had for an extra $700”
Lots of updates to this rig.

“Runs and drives great titles as a 1946 Willys. Super strong and reliable. No carb to worry about. No emissions required, qualifies for classic plates. Very nicely put together. Lots of time and money putting it together the best way possible!!! It has Great heater. Everything works on the car including lockers. Exhaust system it’s straight piped and needs a little tweaks to accommodate front differential drive axel for rock crawling. Quick sway bar disconects!!!! 4.3 liter v6 from a 2002 blazer was re-sealed and fully rebuild about 1000 miles ago with lockers on both differentials. ABSOLUTELY NO LEAKS AT AT WHAT SO EVER!!! Brand new 35″ tires on aluminum wheels.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2900.
(01/03/2022) Given the oil bracket, this engine may have been rebuilt or replaced.

“Very cool 1946 Jeep CJ2A. This was sitting in a field for quite some time. The owner I bought it from did not title the jeep. The previous owner could not locate the title. So you will need to get a bonded title. I had multiple offers on the way home when picking it up. Will have a bill of sale..
I have shown this jeep to a serious collector and he said this is the kind of jeep he looks for. It’s virtually un molested. It does have rust in the floor under the tank and where the tool box is on passenger side. I bought a new tank and sending unit for it and gas cap. It also has a new repair manual.
The previous owner drove it around for me but did so without working brakes. He used a retro fitted fuel can to make it work. Engine ran rough probably needs carburetor cleaned out real good. I believe the brakes could be bleed. Not sure of their condition. Has to original style seats. This would make a great little project. These thing are going for crazy money and It has the Ford type head. Let me know it your interested and I’m not really gonna budge on price. Other motor shown in pic is not included. I just had it running for a short time however the carburetor started leaking so it will need rebuilt.”
