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 $3000
It needs some work. The seats are odd.
“I am selling my 1948 Willys Jeep cj2a. The engine was rebuilt from ground up about 2 years ago. The fuel tank, body, generator, and radiator need work and it needs new seats. It is in need of a good home who can provide TLC and finish its rebuild. I am starting at $3000 but willing to negotiate for the right person. Please let me know if you are interested in seeing it or have any questions.”
UPDATE: Joel notes that this jeep is actually located in Michigan. http://www.thecj2apage.com/1947_willys_cj2a/nate_swiger_1947_cj2a_jeep.html
Looks good.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3250. Larger pics added. To call it “era correct” is a stretch given the front tow bar, the diamond plating on the floor, the incorrect windshield and more. However, there is some value here given the trailer, extra windshield, and tires.
(12/30/2011) The trailer needs a new wiring harness.
“Best OFFER TAKES BOTH. I am not crazy enough to think these vehicles are worth 15K but I do not think you will find a era correct pair ANYWHERE else and so here is your chance to own some classic Americana. Text best offer and lets get this going.
Here are the details, trailer and jeep will not be split up as they go together in this sale. Both have CLEAN TITLES IN HAND.
Jeep and trailer are in great condition for their age. The Jeep has an original flathead 4 cylinder motor and runs great. The trailer is complete however, needs a new wiring harness. I have been using a magnetic light tow package for ease of not having to install new lights but other than that you will not find a more nimble and strong trailer anywhere for with this jeep/trailer package. I also have an extra windshield and cowl (windshield broken) and 4 original slim lines rims and tires included.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5400

“1946 jeep willys for sale rebuild project motor as been done got 1900.00 in motor trans and transfer case redone”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
Estate sale items with no titles. One body is fiberglass the other is supposed to be MB/GPW, but looks civilian to me. They have to go. Price will drop.
“Hi, I am looking to sell my 2 willys jeeps. The blue one as shown in the picture’s is a 1946. It does have a 4 cyl motor (doesn’t run) although it is not locked up. It has a fiber glass body also except for the hood and the front grill.
The other jeep is the green one as pictured, and it is a 1943 all metal body.
It does not have a motor or tans but I do have a 6 cyl super sonic with trans that goes with it.
Neither of the jeeps have title’s due to being lost in the estate although they are cleared to be sold.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9900.
It’s a little less than original, but looks in great condition.
“We are pleased to present this restored 1947 Willys Overland CJ-2A, originally manufactured in Toldedo, OH. This classic civilian version of the famous WWII Jeep MB was completely rebuilt in 1983 and has less than 10,000 miles recorded since. This Willys is period correct, to our knowledge, in every facet besides being converted to a 12V from a 6V. It is powered by the numbers matching 4-Cylinder Flathead, known historically as the “Go Devil,” which produced 60hp at 4,000rpm and 105lb-ft at 2,000rpm. The transmission is a Borg-Warner T-90A1 that is a 3-speed manual and floor shifted. The transfer case is twin stick and gear driven, known as a Dana/Spicer 18. Produced from 1941 to 1971, this transfer case is known for its strength, reliability, and ease of maintenance. This CJ also features an aftermarket CD player and sound system. The first production of the civilian versions began after the war in July of 1945 and ended sometime in 1949. Examples like this well-restored CJ-2A are hard to come by in this condition – the majority of them have not survived the test of time, wear and tear. We are confident this Willy will deliver smiles and satisfaction to its new owner. It comes with doors, supports and top; however, more fun to drive and ride in with them left in the garage. This classic example will not be here long at the price offered so call or e-mail today.”
This looks good, though not entirely stock.
