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.
I’m sure doing burnouts on pavement can’t be that hard on the tires and the running gear, right?

I am in no way in a need of cash so please do not try to low ball me. I just had a Son and the wife needs a bigger Jeep with my dogs and the kid”
This looks like an old racer. The roll cage alone is worth some money. The engine might be worth $325 if it runs like the seller indicates. The seller also has a set of mounted terra tractor tires for only $150.
“1948 Willys CJ2A Jeep, You can air up the tires, light it on fire & push it down a hill……….but you probably won’t drive this one without a little fine tuning here and there!
It has been converted to a Buick 3.8 V6 engine, but all of the rest of the drive train appears to be original……..Dana 25 in the front…….Dana 30 in the rear.
The tub, firewall and hood have been hacked by someone that shouldn’t be allowed to have any sharp objects. The fenders, grill and frame might be of use to someone, or, you can refer back to my opening line at the top. $325 and it is yours! You could offer me a little less if I appear to be in a good mood.
Call Steve @ 1-360-600-4223

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9000.
It seems to be made from extra parts from various jeeps. Paul notes, correctly, that the outside of the rims have been sprayed, but the insides haven’t, suggesting a quick-n-dirty spray job. If you look at the bottom of the rig, you can see where black spray paint got to some spots and not other others, like the bottom of the axle housings, the bottom of the springs shackles, parts of the muffler, etc.
“Total Body Off Restoration – Body Mostly New. New Wiring Harness. New Soft Top. All new Gauges. Upgraded Holley Carb.”

The fiberglass body looks in good shape, though the seller says it is cracked.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500
(03/25/2011) There are a few things that aren’t original, including the grille and bumper, however this could be a solid jeep none-the-less. This also has full floating rear hubs.
“48 willys: Good condition. All original except aftermarket vinyl soft top. 4 wheel drive works including low range. New tires. No back seat. Body is in ok shape; some surface rust, no holes. floor is all there.”
There’s been a variety of mods to this jeep.

(03/19/2011) I can’t tell if the body is fiberglass or a WWII body.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2200.
(09/17/09) This looks more like a MB body. And, it looks like a pretty good price given the winch, rollcage, and overdrive.
“1948 Jeep CJ2A, $3000.00 or Best Offer, 4-cyl F-Head, 3-speed trans w/OD, 8000 # Warn winch w/ remote, Tube bumpers front & rear, Chevrolet tilt wheel, 31 inch tires.”

“I got a 47 willys with an 83 toyota drivetrain. The motor runs good but needs work on throttle cable and frame has some rust spots. The willys is sitting on 38.5 gumbo mudders tires alone are worth 600. I need money for new vehicle blew my motor in my truck thats the only reason for selling my toy.”
There may be some value here.
“1946 CJ2A. Title has been lost, but bill of sale will be provided. The Jeep appears to be complete except for windsheild, tailgate, and air cleaner assy. 2 inward facing rear seats with grab handles. Roll bar. Tow bar is attached, but welds need to be redone. All running gear appears to be stock. Engine will turn over by hand. Have not put a battery in it to check electrical system. Transmission shifter not not seem to change gears, so it will need some attention. Body is in great shape without any major dents and very little rust. I do not believe there is any rust through. This one would make a great restoration project, deer lease, or farm truck. I can get more pictures within a few days upon request. Need cash more than trades, and all reasonable offers will be considered.”
