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 .
Appears to be a pretty stock jeep with a rear PTO gearbox.

“I have a 1949 Willys Jeep 33,192 original miles. Has a newer soft top that can be folded back. Good solid Jeep. Yellow in color. No rust holes some normal wear. But was used just to plow a driveway way up north. I did put a new master cylinder on it so it has breaks. But these weren’t made to stop on a dime.
Does need a new battery but with a charge fires right up and runs very good. I’m sure the seats have been redone as they are like new but who knows as the mileage shows it never went very far. And it does have the original plow on it. High and low range work good and 2 and 4 wheel drive works good.
Needs some work.
“good project,ran last summer. has nice soft top. has newer steering column and powers steering original power train”

“Mint 1947 willys jeep. Better than new. Runs starts and drives perfect. New tires brakes winch. Has overdrive and bigger brakes. Good jeep”
Includes the Warn winch and the jeep runs!
“Runs,tranny and transfer shift fine,rear end good. 4 cylinder 135engine. Best top and doors,decent shape.Older 8000 lb Warn winch. Windshield cracked , windshield frame rusted out. This Jeep was used on the beach so it’s rusty in places. I think the parts are worth the price, winch is probably $ 350 to $ 400 alone. $2,000 obo.”

It has a replacement body. No description provided.

Has some updates. Seller has only owned a short time.
“I have a running and driving 1947 Jeep CJ2A available for sale with a clean Montana title. Located in Butte Montana. Very nice jeep but not perfect. Starts right up and drives well, 4 x 4 works great low and High. Does not have original motor or tire and wheels. From what I cam tell it a late 60’s Buick V6 in it now. I have only owned it a few months and do not know a lot about jeeps. I do know that it sure does turn heads when ever I am out driving it. I have noticed a few thing since I have owned it and they are listed below. P. S. original mileage is unknown
Known problems are.
1- Emergency cable is disconnected or missing
2 Small oil leak at timing cover
3 small anti freeze leak at thermostat or upper hose
4- Fuel gauge does not work
5- Electric cooling fans are controlled by a on off switch.”

Not sure how much value is here.
“Up for sale is a 1946 willys cj2a jeep. Jeep body is pretty rough but if you are a great body man you could save it. Jeep frame overall is in good condition. Some damage up front where someone cut a winch off many many years ago. Motor is original but not complete. I do have original Carter carb for it. I also have air cleaner and other motor parts laying around. Jeep hasn’t ran since early 1990s. Ran strong then but parts then came off and I have been collecting them back. Transfer case and transmission appear to be in good condition. Jeep will roll for loading. I also have an extra motor that is 95% complete that goes with it. It was used to power a welder so it has high hours but low rpms. Also included is a aftermarket tow bar and an original grille from another cj2a. I have both original front seat frames as well. Does have a clean PA title. I do have some wiggle room with my price but don’t waste my time with low ball offers. I will not trade either. Cash only”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900.
Has a new motor & tranny (prob just rebuild?), but not much else looks new.
“1949 Willys jeep new motor new transmission no rust”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
(06/12/2016) It runs. Interesting bezels. They remind me of some of the CJ-V35U bezels.
“1948 cj2a Willeys jeep motor is strong need carb rebuild transmission and 4 wheel dr in great condition I’m asking 2000 OBO based what I have found online not sure if that’s high so feel free to make offer need gone today”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8300.
This combo appears worth a look. This has a rare Carson Car Craft hardtop.
“I don’t want to sell the” 45″ alone, just because. Both run , the 48 has a homemade plow set up. and I would add is crazy clean. Garaged and driven for 35 years, then I bought it. The “45” is a VEC, vin. 10365, good bones. And also comes with a great story ! Open to calls , but I have a limit on how much jeep talk I can do.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
Looks like a solid build.
“1946 Willys Jeep CJ-2A
Clean body
Nice paint
Runs well
Drives great
Original inline 4 cylinder”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2600.
Looks like a great price. Has an updated engine.
“Early 1946 CJ2 mostly original condition, runs and drives. 6 cylinder Studebaker engine.
Very fun to drive”
Looks like it has a Beck “Econo Cab” Model 100.
“Decided to sell my 1946 Willys Jeep CJ2A due to storage issues. It runs great, has newer tires and brakes and is converted to 12 volts. Serious inquiries only please.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4500.
“I have a 1946 Willys CJ2A for sale it is a 3 speed manual transmission, 4X4 (transfer case levers need to be re installed which I have them). It has a Flathead 4 cylinder motor, rear seat with seat belts, manual starter. I have owned it for about 2 years in hopes of making it a project vehicle but I have not had much time to work on it due to my job. It is almost complete and almost road worthy. It is currently not fully drivable but all it needs to run is a larger pulley put on the alternator as well as a wider pulley belt. I called and explained what was happening to Hammetts in Biloxi and they said it would cost around $200 for them to do it. I just don’t have the time to finish it up and would hate to see it sit any longer. I have replaced the rear main seal, flywheel ring gear, clutch pressure plate, alternator is brand new, starter bendix. It starts and runs but with the pulley and belt being smaller it squeals when you rev the engine and the alternator does not charge. I am asking $4,500 OBRO.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200.
(05/30/2016) This running project could be a good price.
“MUST SELL!! The perfect project for the right person. This is a 1946 willys jeep. 50% of the body work is done. It runs good, but the motor will eventually need to be overhauled. I have the seat frames, fuel tank, as well as several other mechanical/body parts. I just want to find it a good home with someone who has the time to put into bringing this little gem back to life. I have a TX title for it. It is titled as 46, but it’s really a 1949 model”
There appears to be value here.
“1945 Willys Jeep. Includes with fuel tank, windshield. For parts or fix up project. With title.”
http://wyoming.craigslist.org/cto/5661485363.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3400.
Runs, but needs brakes.
“Hard to find, desirable early Willys with shifter on steering column. This was the first civilian model jeep made after WW2. Serial number 27040. Stored indoors and owned by the same person for the past 40 years. Starts and runs great. Brakes not currently working. Solid, nearly complete vehicle would be great for restoration or would be perfect to use around farm with little work needed.”
The windshield is particularly interesting. I wonder how well the windshield wiper works.
“1946 Willy’s Jeep with too much to list but I will try, 3.8 ford V-6 aluminum heads (extra motor), auto Trans trans, extra transfer case complete. upgraded everything, axes, air compressor, holding tank, winch, off road lights, family roll cage, new top for jeep still in box, (old top- if out and wheeling), new this winter disc brakes all the way around, power steering, two speed wipers, two speed heater, viper security alarm with perimeter alarm, Bose speakers, pioneer stereo, back seat with build in tool box, quick disconnect water proof back box for groceries if needed, deer rack for hauling on rear, tow tongue, all new gauges, fuel system flushed tank pulled with new sending unit, locking gas tank, spare fuel tank, with switchable tank switch, half doors and bikini top, two hard tops for the jeep, interior lights, tilt wheel, spare tire, lock in hubs, reclining seats, nice mirrors— don’t low ball me or I will not even respond be serious…”
