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 Auctioned.
Seth forwarded this militarized CJ-2A from Bring-a-Trailer’s website.
“This 1947 Willys Jeep CJ2A is a body-off restored example with a 134 CI 4-cylinder engine, 3-speed transmission, and upgrades for safety and highway cruising. It is fitted with seat belts and a roll bar as well as 11” drum brakes and locking hubs in the front and a Warn Overdrive unit to lower engine RPM at speed. Notable features include an original-style canvas top with the frames and bracketry which enable multiple configurations of the top and side curtains, as well as a cool bed-extension option in the rear.”
Not sure how much value is here.
“Body’s rusted bad been sitting for few years but it’s all original the flathead 4cylinder 3speed Tranny an 2 stick transfer case good Dana front and rear axels motors good ran when I parked it few years ago but never had the time or money for it. I kno the drive train works an runs just free it up from sitting. So it’s worth it an a steal for a 47 Willys no matter how u see it.”

Looks interesting. It could use some lighter pics.
“Willies built for fun. Built Chevy 350 out of a corvette. Turbo 400 trans. B&M shifter. Dayna front and rear. Edelbrock carb, filters, and covers. MSD ignition. Dual shocks around. Strengthened front and rear axels. 35″ tires on 15″ rims. 6 point roll over cage bolted to a boxed in frame. Custom 25 gallon fuel tank.
This thing goes like nothing I have ever been in before. I bought it when I was smaller. I am 6’4″ and 335lbs. I don’t fit. If your under 6′ you have it made. And it will scare the hell out of anyone who rides with you, as long as you don’t mess you pants.
I’m selling to make space in my garage. I am not too open to lower.
I changed the fluids and battery this spring. My need a tune up. It’s sat a while. Come check it out.”
According to the map on Craigslist, this jeep is located near the US & Canadian border a short distance from Niagara Falls.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
The body looks in good shape.
“Project that never quite got done… Zero-time engine but has been sitting for over 10 years and has never been started. Suspect good condition. Fresh ground cam and crank, milled block and head surfaces, new bearing/seals/oil pump, 0.060-over cylinders, new pistons/rings, valve job, etc. Have all engine appliances (external oil ‘filter’, airbox, generator/regulator, skid plates, carb). Carb and distributor would need attention. 6V system. Believe all body/chassis parts are there. Previous owner stated rebuilt tranny and transfer case. Based on his character this is likely true but not confirmed. Rolling chassis with eng/tran/case and axles installed. Sand-blasted and painted frame, new shackles, brake lines, bolts, bearings, brakes, aftermarket shocks, u-joints, pretty much most of the chassis consumables replaced. Body fundamentally rough but spent quite a bit of time with heat and hammer repairing holes and making panels straight. Body would be functional and visually appealing, but never show product. Body is not bolted to chassis. Original 16″ wheels with dead tires. Clear title in my name. Cannot be driven or towed, would need to be trailered.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1400.

For some reason the seller is listing this as a 1947 CJ-2A. Maybe it has a repro body?

“I am selling my CJ2 A project Jeep. This Jeep came from California and is all original. I tore it down and started restoration. It has a Buick 212 V6 that was installed at a dealer in ’62. I had the engine professionally rebuilt from crank to carb. This engine is bored out to a 223 with all new parts. I have put new leaf springs, brake lines, and painted the frame. I have everything to put it back together but the time. I have a spare front axle. This jeep has the original exterior screen for the radiator and the original winch. Tub is totally rust free including the tool box under the passenger seat.”

Seller lists this as a 1945/1946, but the grille suggests it is later.
“1945/46 Cj2A Jeep Willys, was a California car for most of its life and has very little surface rust. Reliable enough to drive everyday if you wanted to, starts and runs every time. Needs TLC as expected from an old vehicle. Fun to drive and a great project for anyone with a little mechanical know how. I would love to keep it but its time for the next project.
email or text is the best way to reach me, all reasonable offers will be considered.
