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 .
It’s a column shift with indents and rear floating hubs.

I’m just testing the waters here with my 1948 Jeep CJ2A, thinking of something different and clearing up garage space. This is a decent project Jeep, and lots of fun, but it’s not show car quality. Frame off rust removal, painting and hole patching has been completed. This Jeep is 90% complete and it does run. New wires, lights, battery, plugs etc. what it needs for completion is a brake job, replace rotted rubber fittings in the brake system, a new gas tank, gauges, and seats along with some other little things I can’t think of now.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $2500. Has been recently painted (was a cammo style). Has no drive train.

No titles is sellers name.
“For Sale: (3) Willy’s Jeeps. 1946-1947; standard / manual on the floor. (1) of the Jeeps is a bonified MB the other two are CJ’s. However, one of the CJ’s has a Ford GPW frame.
The MB has a #2 chipped piston and does not run–this motor is pristine inside, but someone assembled the distributor gear in backwards when it was rebuilt, so it was 180 out, hence the chipped piston. I have four brand new pistons that go with this jeep.
The CJ’s/Ford both have Willy’s L-head / flat-head motors and do run. Not one of the jeeps for sale are driveable, but they are all three rolling chassis.
One has a gear reduction starter installed. All three have very nice 12V conversions done.
Jeeps are in various stages of repair / mock-up. All the parts are either installed or in boxes. One is severely rusted and will need a new tub.
First $3250.00 in cash O.B.O. takes all three jeeps. Will consider trades WITH cash.
I do not have title in my name to any the jeeps I am selling. The Ford Framed Jeep with the CJ Grill and tub does have an open title; (not in my name.).
Please do not text me and ask me for more pictures. If you want more detailed pictures, please give me a call first; (voice call), to confirm you’re serious and interested in coming to buy the three jeeps. If you’re interested in just buying parts, let me know what you need and I’ll see what I have. I will send pictures after we have spoken.
You buy all three jeeps for $3250.00–YOU GET ALL MY SPARE PARTS, EVERY SINGLE SPARE WILLY’S AND FORD PARTS I HAVE.
We are about 14 miles SSE of Temple, TX. 76571–Salado.
*If you’re reading this add the jeeps are still for sale.
**I will deliver for gas, mileage and my time; that includes my return trip, provided you’ve paid for the jeeps in advance, in cash.
Thanks”

Needs clutch, but runs, powered by a Studebaker engine.
“1948 Willys CJ, with a Studebaker Flat 6 engine. runs and drives well, however it needs a new clutch rod. at one point it was converted to a hydraulic clutch out of a rambler. the master cylinder went out and broke the old clutch rod it was in very bad shape and couldn’t be repaired. if you have a welder and time to do a little Fab work you can have yourself a beautiful willys. it also needs new lockouts. someone did a Bondo job on the body and painted it, the tires are like new runs great.
if interested please call or text above, serious inquiries only please. No trades
Fyi, at some point I will have time to fix the clutch rod and the price will go up accordingly”
