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 $4500.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2200
(08/31/2013) It’s a project, but it looks in good shape.
“1948 Willys CJ2A 4×4 Project, Has a chevy 283 bored 0.30 solid lifters, wiend stealth intake, Mallory magnetic breakerless ignition and Mallory super coil, 33″ tires and super single style rims 15×10, keg converted into fuel tank, rancho shocks and lift, 2 sets of seats one set plastic molded and the other is out of an Acura.
This motor ran super, I have since used the carb and battery on other projects, it has a broken rear axle so it will need to be trailered even though it has a tow bar attached to the front, all in all I’ve had it garaged since 1995 when I bought it. This is a good base for off road fun, the motor ran strong and loud with a definite lope, turns head even on the trailer, contact me with any questions more than happy to talk about the mods that have been made.”
UPDATE: Still Available
(04/26/2013) This includes an overdrive. It’s listed as a ’45, but I don’t see anything to indicate it’s that early. The body is a little rough based on the old pics.
“Here we have a 1945 Military Willys Jeep. 283 Chevy V-8 engine. 3 speed manual transmission with overdrive and a dual stick transfer case. New lock out hubs. Runs and drives great. Asking $3650 OBO. Layaway type payment plans available. Call 719-243-4614”

This is a project.
“I am trying to sell my 1946 willys jeep cj2a. I have about 3200$ invested in it and the time has come that I just need to get rid of it. It has a 350/sm465/np205 with full width axles that are Dana 44 front and Dana 60 rear. It has a warn xd9000i winch that goes with it the tires are 33×12.50r15 super swamper tsl thornbirds that are about 30-40%. The 350 was just gone trough and cleaned up 2.02 heads with roller rockers were put on it with an edelbrock intake and edelbrock carb the trans shifts really solid and the trans was just cleaned up also. It is a project for sure all the main pieces are there and it will come with a set of 4 Cherokee coils to switch the suspension from leafs to coils front and rear it needs this because the rear axle has been moved back about 8″ to make room for a longer rear driveshaft. It will need a starter, wiring harness, seat belts, links with heim joints, drivelines, and a radiator so it’s only about 1000-1500$ away from being a driver and I am in school and can’t afford this at the time”
UPDATE: Still Available
(11/17/2013) This jeep takes a pretty photo.
“Hello and Thanks for checking out my Willys Jeep. This is a really great little Jeep and it is restored back to completely original condition and it looks great. It was a total nut and bolt rebuild. Everything is numbers matching and put together just as it should be. It wears its original colors of Harvest Tan with Sunset Red wheels. With only 300 miles on it since the resto, it runs and drives so good, and it very reliable as it starts right up every time. It is such a blast to drive – It goes down the road at 50-55 mph and is actually very easy to drive. The engine is great – it just hums and idles so smooth. The only thing that is not original is that is now has an alternator instead of a generator – and everything works as it should including all the headlights, brake light, and gauges. If you have been looking for one of these – This is a really great one at a great price – Im not trying to make any money on it, I would just like it to go to a new owner who will enjoy it, and show it off like I have. If you have any questions about it, just send me a message, and I will be happy to talk to you about it.”

Up for Bid is a 1946 Willys
I purchased this Jeep a few years back from a local farmer that had it sitting in his shop for years and drove it during local parades. Well I purchased it thinking I would like to complete the restore and keep it for a long time. Well as life goes things get in the way and I need to sell it. I did nothing to it except put a new battery in it and started it and drove it from the storage unit to home about once a year. Starts and runs great, Always Stored inside – Black Canvas top looks brand new.
1. Converted to 12Volt System
2. Excellent condition for the age.

“Please be sure to click on the following URL to view all the pictures of this Jeep: 1945 Willys Jeep for saleYou are looking at a 1940s Willys Jeep that needs everything to be restored, but is mostly complete and would make a great project if you’re looking for one of these! What you see is what you get, and I do have an old 1945 title for it (hasn’t been registered in a very long time). It’s got a cool galvanized metal top that looks factory built (not just some cheesy home-made jobby) I think it’s a Sears and Roebuck. Engine is seized up, and vehicle is a total rusty project, but at $1250, it would make a cool, cheap yard ornament until you get around to fixing it up! Thanks for looking.”

(11/07/2013) This has an unusual bumper. It also might have an engine issue.
“1946 Willys CJ-2A, This is the first civilian jeep ever produced. It has the original 4cyl flathead engine, and is more or less original. This is a fun car to drive around town on a nice day or an unstoppable deer camp jeep. This thing is like a goat, it will climb over or go through anything without skipping a beat, especially with the new set of buckshot wide mudders I have on it.
First the bad: I was driving it about a month ago when the oil pressure went out and it died on my. I think it slipped a bearing but I am not positive. In short, it will probably need some degree of engine rebuild.
The good: These thing are extremely easy to work on and parts are readily available and relatively cheap. I can start the engine and you can hear it run, but it loses power under load so you can’t drive it around. I have replace the entire brake assembly (drums, shoes, master and wheel cylinders, etc…) and it was running good around town when the engine went out.
Please call or text me if you have any questions… (six zero one) 988-5924”
