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.
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 $1200.
Not sure if this runs or not.

“Stored in a garage in the Colorado Mountains since 1982, this jeep was recently pulled out and revived. It shows just 17,557 miles on it. It runs remarkably well, starts easily, and has no visible smoke whatsoever.
It has a new fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel line, and rebuilt the carburetor. It got a major tune up, oil change and a new battery. All of the wheel cylinders were replaced, new brake shoes and a new master cylinder.
The dry climate in Colorado has preserved the body. There is a crack in the RR fender near the spare tire mount that is showing minor rust. The tub and floors are very good, but the floor supports are rusting and need replacing. (Easy to do and not expensive)
The seats and interior are in very good condition.
The tires are dry cracked and need to be replaced. Right windshield is cracked.”
Appears worth a look.

“I think it has the original 4 cyl engine. Sounds like a tractor. Runs and drives has all new brake system, heavy duty bumpers and custom roll bar. Body in better shape than most 47’s. Tons of potential. These are getting hard to find”
Includes a CJ-2A parts jeep.

“This Jeep is a little rough but has lots of parts most other WWII Jeeps are missing. It’s odd it retains many parts that were taken off but it appears to been treated ruff by the metal work – like the floor.
The front wheels are the rare two piece which I have rarely seen and maybe the dual rear wheel option they had offered.
Motor is not the best but I will include another mostly complete early green CJ-2 that should have a good motor – it turns over – oil looks good – and has anti-freeze in the radiator.
Not wanting to send a lot of pictures – best come and look at it and the parts Jeep.”
Part’s jeep: 
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was 3500.
(10/11/2019) Appears to have an f-head.
“Clean title….runs…decent tires…. body straight with very little rust. Would make an excellent project Jeep this winter.”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $2700. This was previously listed in Irvine.
(09/16/2019) From the pics, it looks like there was some good work done on this.
“Very cool Willy’s Jeep all original drivetrain does not run. It looks like the cowl and windshield were grafted from a Willy’s wagon, and the steel cab is all one piece. Probably not a prototype vehicle or a relative to the CJ4, but a cool “missing link” CJ2a built with awesome craftsmanship 40+ years ago. Possibly a non-US made Jeep wagonette. Suicide doors latch. Great patina. This will be the coolest Jeep at Easter Jeep safari.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $9700.
(09/16/2019) Has a replacement body and some mods.

“I have too many projects and not enough time or money to finish them, so unfortunately I may have to let this one go.
This is a 1946 CJ2A Willy’s Jeep. It has a dauntless 225 v6 motor and the original 3 speed transmission and twin stick transfer case. It runs, drives, and stops. The motor has newer plugs and wires and all gauges work. The body is all original and has minimal rust, no holes in the frame or body. It also has the original vin tag and original data plates on the dash which is very hard to find.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500.

“46 Willys Jeep restoration project nearly 100% complete carburetor generator fuel pump and windshield are missing solid shape for a 46. Too many projects”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.
This lengthened CJ-2A looks similar to other “CJ-2L“s mostly seen in the Pacific Northwest. It wouldn’t surprise me if this was original from that area. Strangely, this jeep is decorated with license plates.
“Selling for a friend. 1947 CJ2A stretch. Needs a little work but it runs and drives. All original motor and drive train and has been used on private property for 50 years.”
UPDATE: Appears to be still available.
