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 .

“1946 Willys Jeep. Runs, needs brake work. We are selling because we recently invested in another classic car. Great fun!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000
This looks solid.
“This is a 1946 Willys CJ2A. This vehicle was done as a frame-off rebuild. Runs well and drives well. This was not a complete restoration. This vehicle was done to be driven for fun, rather than to be a show piece. That being said, here is a brief list of the work that was done:
Frame and body cleaned prepped and painted.
New headlights and tailights
New gauges
New seats
New front floor pans
New brake master cylinder, wheel cylinders, lines, front drums, shoes, and springs.
New front wheel bearings
New air cleaner
New plugs and wires,
Etc..
This jeep is great to just cruise around, or would be a great candidate for a complete restoration.
Asking 6,000 OBO”

Some better pics would help with this jeep. It might be worth a look.
“1948 Willys Jeep CJ2A, Jeep was running when I put it in the garage. I started the tear down process, so it is in a dismantled sate right now but a good start for someone to take over. I ran out of resources to complete. All original parts are still present. This would be a great project and very little body work is required. I am open for serious offers so get a hold of me and see if we can come to an agreement.”
No pics provided.

This appears solid and early. This should be #13337 VEC CJ-2A.
“For sale is a very early 1946 CJ 2A VEC (Very early civilian) with a 5 digit serial number these were the first jeeps made immediately after the WW2 jeep, has many willys military parts such as floating rear axle, military style windshield, body side tool indents, etc… This Vec has the rare and valuable 3 speed on the column shifter. Engine has been completely gone through, runs like a top, jeep has been converted to 12V but have original 6v generator and regulator. Seats have new canvas, starts, drives and stops well. Some body work needed these jeeps in restored condition sell for upwards of $15,000. This one is for sale for $6500”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Every inch of the vehicle is fully restored from original parts??. . . It’s a fraudulent claim; Yet, the bidding on this has been pushed to $20,000 (driven mostly by one bidder). This seems fishy to me. If you are bidding on this jeep, email me.

“I have a 1946 willys jeep and a 1948. Original flathead 4cylinder motor in both..the 48 is a good parts jeep can be sold as pair or seperate..transfer case is out of the 48 but runs good..no title..”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $500.
This runs and has no title.
“Took this on a trade out of curiosity mostly, but I simply do not have the time to restore it right now. I was told it was a ’46, but I do NOT have a title or any papers on it. We had it running and driving on a boat fuel pump/tank (not included) a few months ago–it definitely needs a carb rebuild, but it ran surprisingly well. It is currently not running. The body/original fuel tank/seats are shot, but the frame and drivetrain appear to be solid. Again I do NOT have a title, but i’ll write you a bill of sale. You will need a trailer and a way to load it–it is currently sitting in my barn. I also have a new alternator and oil lines for it that I will include. I am NOT interested in trades”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000
The tires sure aren’t any good.
