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 priced at $4000
This looks like a good price.
“Very rare 1946 Willys CJ2A with factory column shift transmission not many made, not many left. New engine, transmission, transfer case, rear deferential. New brakes, lines, hoses, gas tank, etc…. 55mph not a problem but its been babied and stored inside. Selling below whats in it so I can get something different.”
This looks solid, though the engine doesn’t appear as if it has been through a recent ‘full restoration’.
“1947 Willys cj2a civilian, full resto all stock original, overdrive, new military rims and tires, new clutch and seals in trans, bikini top and backseat, more desirable brakes and carb from 51, runs and drives like new, easily cruises at 60mph (overdrive). $16,500 (530)217-9316”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price.
This has a rear PTO. It runs and drives great, but the rear body panels have been modified.
“This is a rare find. A Jeep Willys with a half cab and PTO. Great for a small farm or hunting lease. Jeep is solid and reliable. Runs and drives great. Please contact me with your offers.”
This needs a motor and perhaps a few other things, too.
“1946 Willys CJ2A, no motor but other than that its complete, its got brand new LT235/75R15 RADIAL RVT WILD COUNTRY on nice chrome wheels, new brake master cylinder and wheel cylinders have been replaced with brand new ones. The body is in decent shape with diamond plate rocker panels and rear corner panels. Windshield is in good shape no cracks. Bought it for a project but dont have the time.

UPDATE: This appears to have been sold. Was priced at $3200.
This looks pretty solid.
“Runs great!!!! Needs body work, but in pretty good shape for year. Has Title”
There looks like some value here.

(09/11/2011) It looks pretty original.
“1948 willys CJ2A. Runs great!!! Pretty much all original except seats. Snow plow and tow bar.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800.
Motor does not run, but the fuel pump is thought to be the problem.
“I have a 1948 willys cj 2a jeep with soft top and soft doors. Does not run at this time! Motor does turn over believe to be fuel pump and i have a new one I’ll give ya. Needs work but body and floor pans are in good shape. I DO HAVE A TITLE. I was told the motor and transmission have been recently rebuild do not know if thats true or not but transmission feels tight. Not perfect but for the money and having a title its worth every penny was going to fix it up and drive it around but decided to start on another project instead. asking $1800 make an offer cash talks”
There appears to be value here.

This looks solid, though I suspect the diamond plating might be hiding a few things.

(01/30/2012) I believe this is a column shift CJ-2A with a MB/GPW Grille and windshield. The front end is a bit heavy looking.
“Model CJ-2A, Runs And Drives Very Well, Still Has Original Motor, Trans, axles etc.”
No pictures.
“runs needs work will add more info soon”
This appears solid.

UPDATE: Price dropped to $1000
(10/27/2011) This has sat for 40 years.
“1946 Willy’s Jeep. This jeep has a four cylinder over head valve engine that has been converted to 12 volt. The motor has been rebuilt but never started. Has been sitting in a garage for 40 years. All of the gauges come with the jeep, they have been removed so they would not be broken. Drive train is in very good condition the front hubs have been replaced. The frame is in very good condition and is not rusted (other than normal oxidation) through anywhere. As you can see the body is pretty rough and needs TLC or a new tub. Comes with 8 rims and tires.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4600
(06/05/2012) Lots of mods; switches, too.

“1947 Willys Jeep

It runs. The body was in an accident. It seems to be missing fenders . . .

http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/cto/2833702137.html
Given the running gear, there appears to be some value. Not a whole lot though.
“1948 Willys for parts or restoration. Engine/drivetrain all there.(Got engine running for around a min. a year ago and it sounds like it needs an engine rebuild) DOES NOT RUN CURRENTLY. FRAME has crack in it that and looks like a previous owner bolted plates to try to repair frame (see pic). Has passenger seat as well. Floor pans pretty much gone as well as seen in pics.
Call 518-eightfivenine-sixsixfour8 or email me about questions or if interested no spammers..
Selling due to two many car projects going on and unfortunatly not enough money to restore. $550.00 or best offer.
Thanks, Steve”

UPDATE: The blue/red jeep has been for sale since 2009, but the seller is now throwing in the other jeep. Note the desert dog tires. I like the old rims, too.
“i have a 1947 and a 1950’s jeep willys they are frame and bodys, no motors, have one transmission and transfercase. both have some rust and dings.

This is a mix of M-38/CJ-2A and other parts.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3497
This has some updates.
“Classic 1947 JEEP WILLYS!! This rare collectors car has a fresh 350 Small Block Chevy. Four-Wheel Drive. Only pay liscensing once with this JEEP, because it has Collector Plates! Own a part of American history for only $3497! Come down to Dorsey Auto Sales in the Spokane Valley @ 17815 E Appleway Ave.”
This looks nice enough, but based on the body and grille, it doesn’t appear to be a 1945 CJ-2a. Note the odd spring behind the driver’s seat in the third picture.
“1945 Willys Jeep Normandy blue. isn very good body and running condition. Speedometer and hand break do not work. everything else is fine. Questions are welcome 863 640 5001.
