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 .
There seems to be some value here.

It runs with F-head.
“1948 CJ2A with newer F head 4 cylinder motor 3 speed manual trans. LT225/75R16 BF Goodrich mud terrain tires with 90% tread on them. Soft top. Engine needs some work but does run.
An ad for a 1946 CJ-2A referenced the following article from the July issue of Automobile Magazine. I expect this will fill a variety of CJ-2A sellers with visions of value where there might not be any. They assign a value of $12,500 to $20,000 for a restored CJ-2A and $12,000 to $18,000 for a restored CJ-3A. What they neglect to mention is how difficult it is to find a properly restored 2A or 3A.
This appears solid and pretty stock.
“947 Jeep Willys with a snow plow. Runs good, drives good, snow plow works well. Snow plow powered by Chrysler power steering pump. Jeep has new plugs, wires, cap, rotor button, condenser, and points. Jeep also has new fuel pump. Jeep has new 6 volt battery but will not hold a charge. The top on the Jeep was replaced 4 years ago.(some seams are split overall top in fair condition). This Jeep is mechanically solid, I have plowed snow for the last 3 years with this Jeep at my home and for others in the neighborhood. The process to obtain a title has been initiated through the Colorado DMV. The title is clear. For this process to continue in Colorado, all lights have to be operational on the vehicle. The wiring is 60+ years old. In my opinion, it needs a complete new wiring harness. (Complete new wiring harness available at Kaiser Jeep Willys for $314). In addition to the Jeep, I also have 2 brand-new Firestone 6X16 military tread tires and 2 brand-new sets of military-issued tire chains. Snow plow has recently been painted and upgraded to all quick-release pins and all brand-new hydraulic hoses.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3400
(04/14/2013) This appears to have potential. It runs and drives.
“This is a 1946 Willys Jeep model CJ2A Universal. The body is very solid although it has had some patches done some time in its life. Drive it as is, or would make an easy restoration to factory original. It runs great and all the running gear works great. It does, however need brake work, electrical work, radiator service and some other misc. stuff. Currently registered in my name with transferable ownership available immediately. This Jeep is NOT ready for the road just yet, but it wouldn’t take much.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7200.
It could use another paint job and some body work.

(02/15/2013) Walter forwarded this CJ-2A. The seller says he has the arctic top, but it isn’t attached. I’m wondering if the pics are prior to the work that was done. It doesn’t have a title.
“I have a early 40s Willys Jeep, 4 cylinder runs good, looks to be rebuilt before I got it, 4 wheel works, body rusty but pretty solid, has anew gas tank, I think its a M38 Military type. All have been rewired and work. Also have the Artic Hard Top with it but its not attached. I have not driven it on the road but have driven it in the woods and it done well,”

The truck runs great, get in turn the key and start it up. All of the gauges work, lights work, horn works. This truck would make a great restoration candidate, just needs a little TLC.”

The yellow one runs. Neither looks like a 1956.

Have title. Currently non- oped. Come take a look and drive it. $2,700OBO. Located in Loomis”
The seller lists this as having a 1945 title and matching VIN plate, but I don’t see any evidence it was a 1945. There’s been some repairs near the drain hole areas. The front frame rail on the driver’s side appears patched.
“For Sale: Really neat little 2-A for sale. Runs like a top and does not use or burn oil. Body has been sheet metaled on side and floors very neatly Military strapped frame with the bullet parking lights. Just bled brakes, etc and all guages work except fuel gauge.
