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: Price dropped to $4200

“I have a 1946 cj2a flat fender jeep for sale. It needs a little work, but runs great, and will drive you around town!. The jeep is FULL of rare and sought after parts. The motor is a flat head inline 6 out of a Willys jeepster, which was only offered for two years with this motor “VERY RARE”. T-90 3 speed tranny, Dana 18 t-case w/ a spicer PTO unit front & rear. Dana 44 rear axle with new bearings and seals / Dana 27 front, both axles have the biggest brakes offered for any jeep…11″ drums.

The previous owner had the jeep registered NON-OP, but the title is gone however there is a tag on the firewall and came with plates. I called DMV and the told me it would be no big deal just bring them the jeep and new plates could be issued the same day! The body is in good shape, the floors are in great shape.
She runs great and is so fun to drive, you’ll have WWII vets coming out of the woodwork wanting to talk, and thumbs up everywhere.”

How about this unusual top?
“I have for sale a Willys JEEP CJ2A. The jeep is currently titles as a 1972 because it is very hard in my state to get a new title. The original serial number is on the jeep. The jeep is tagged and i have driven it alot on the road. The jeep has always performed very well for me. The body has been patched over the years with new metal, (no bondo that i can see). The frame is in good shape. All the brakes have been replaced, (master cyl., wheel cyl., lines, shoes, ect. ). The wire harness has been updated to 12 volt and all the lights work fine. The 4 wheel drive also works great. The engine runs good and all the gears work fine in the trans. The water pump is new and the starter is rebuilt. I bought this jeep when i retired 5 years ago to pull a wagon with firewood out of the woods, I am older now and find it hard to get in and out of so i bought a tractor instead. This is a really fun little jeep and i hope some one will enjoy it as much as i have. This is a reserve auction and i will not reveal the price. The jeep is being sold “AS IS” with NO WARRANTY”. There is a $500.00 non-refundable deposit required within 48 hrs of end of auction. If you have any questions or would like to make an appointment to inspect the jeep before bidding yo may call me at 443-553-2712 my name is MIke. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $495.
(10/03/2010) This is listed as a 1949, but I am leaning towards that being a DJ body. That looks like a good price.
“good body & floor. ”
This unusual photo has likely been through photoshop at least once. There’s a story attached as well. Click here to read the entire story.
In 1959 my dad and Mr. Hatcher Williams founded a summer school for high school boys at a hunting lodge in Corolla, North Carolina. I spent nearly the whole summer at Camp Yonahnoka in the Carolina mountains while my sisters and parents practically lived at the beach. (continued)
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was No Price.

“1947 Jeep CJ2A complete – lot of rust – complete running gear”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $5995
(03/08/2011) The VIN of #315301 on this is a little high … like 80,000 production units high. The dash is missing a couple items, but this sure looks nice.
“Great little run around flat fender Jeep. It picked up lots of TLC as of late A list of newer parts would include Body Tub Tail gate fenders grill hood windshield frame poly gas tank Front seats rear seats Alloy wheels Mickey Thompson Tires and Rancho springs. It also has been converted from to a 12 volt system with a alternator the wipers are electric and tail lights are LED. The engine has been tuned up and is absolutely purring. The steering is tight and 4×4 is solid the idle is smooth and runs great. This Jeep does not have a soft top or a hard top or doors, sold as is the open Jeep pictured. I would recomend a bikini top to the next owner and call it good at that. This Jeep is a real eye catcher and would be a fun toy to have around. Call Shep at 208.721.1973”

Candy Apple Paint, CB, a new top and doors. He just had the Carb professionally rebuilt but somehow it isn’t running right. May be the carb or how dad hooked it up??? Has an f-head 4 cylinder with a trick custom intake, 3 spd, power steering with saginaw box, Caddy titl wheel and more. He paid $5000 just a few years back and has dumped more money into it. He would like it gone this weekend so cash talks but seriously no BS offers this is a clean rig for the right guy it’s cheap too”
It doesn’t run.
