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 .

(02/01/2017) Lots of updates.
“1947 CJ2A body on a 1974 CJ5 frame. 327 cubic inch Chevy engine, 3 speed manual, four wheel drive, rear lockers. This was basically a frame off restoration. The engine was rebuilt and everything is either new or refurbished. Front disk brakes, new gauges. The odometer was set to zero when the engine was finished. The frame and body were sand blasted and painted. No rust or body damage. Custom seats, power steering, new Bestop soft top. Windshield wipers and a heater have been added for Colorado weather. Reverse shackle leaf springs for improved handling, tilt steering. It runs and drives great. Good Offroad setup. I inherited this jeep so I don’t have some of the specifics on certain parts. The price is fair and firm. It needs to be seen to be appreciated.”

https://losangeles.craigslist.org/ant/cto/6156013976.html
Listed as a 1946, it appears to have a later grille for that. It also has an M-38 windshield. Seller would prefer to see it stay original.
“1946 Willys CJ2A with clear title. Was driven to it’s current location 5 years ago with no brakes. I never got around to bleeding the brakes so now I assume it needs the brake cylinders rebuilt or replaced. It was originally red and then painted green. After that it was rattle canned yellow. The wheels on it are from a CJ5. It has the original Go-Devil motor. It was converted to 12 volt and I never got around to putting it back to 6 volt. It still has the original front hubs and was never converted with lockouts. I have too many projects so this Willys is up for sale. I have a car dolly and I will consider delivery as part of the deal. I will give preference to someone wishing to keep it original and not put in a V8 or other conversion but I understand if someone wants to give it more power.”
https://denver.craigslist.org/cto/6153123696.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Craig shared this one. Seller wants it gone.
“I have a 1948 Willys Cj 2A for sale. I have done some tinkering on it but since I am away at school most of the year it has got to go. It comes with two engines, one free spinning and ready to go in and an extra motor with condition unknown which i have pulled some parts off of. All tires have good tread and hold air, but do have some dry rot. It is old, it has rust. No title, have the original VIN plate and bill of sale. Great project or for parts. Whatever you want to use it for, MAKE AN OFFER and lets get it gone. ”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(04/27/2017) Not sure how much value is here.
“Clean Florida title, delivery available depending on location. Let me know what questions you have.
