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 $4500.
This looks like a nice build.
“Has 350 motor. 350 turbo tranny not four wheel drive,has corvet rear end. 4 inch lift kit. Just to many bills not enough cash. Too many projects this one is on the chopping block.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1900.
This appears to be a good price given all the work and the new canvas.
“Made up to look like an Army Jeep. All brakes redone, master and wheel cylinders, pads, lines hoses. Wheel bearings and seals bushings and shocks. Good exhaust. Wiring redone, all new gauges. Good seats, Like new Army top and frame work, made by Beachwood canvas . Runs and drives good. Body rough but usable, Jeep still needs work but lots of work has been done. $1900 OBO.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1300
(05/25/2010) The body appears in good condition, but hard to tell from this far away pic.
“I have a 1947 CJ-2A with a later DJ style body on it. It has the L-134 flathead motor, along with an upgraded Solex carb that many people swapped on to these engines. Has new carb rebuild kit, new spark plugs, new points, new electric fuel pump, new fuel lines, and about 80% left on some 31″ mud terrains. The bad news is a blown head gasket, however if you’ve ever seen one of these engines, it is probably the easiest thing to replace on a Willy’s, and despite this it will still drive around town, just not very far down the highway. It has some dents and dings, but verry little bad rust anywhere. Great for around the ranch or around town.”
A lot of work needed to turn this into a runner.
“1946 Willys Jeep CJ2A; Has snow plow frame and pump. Not running but would make a great restoration project of an old classic farm jeep. If interested please e-mail or call 845-229-6797.”

(09/14/2010) “Great Willys for sale no motor body in great shape Please call for more details.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000
This might be a good price. It runs.
“1946 Willy’s for sale. Has been garaged for the last 5 years. Four cylinder motor-will run, but needs some love. Have not had it running for about a year and a half. Body is in ok shape, but needs some help as well to get back to original form. Differentials and T-Case all work, and transmission shifts smoothly. Serious offers/inquiries only. Please let me know if you have specific questions regarding the vehicle.”
I’m not sure what we have here …

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3900
This looks solid.
“1946 JEEP OFF ROAD CLASSIC, DONE MILITARY WITH ROLL BAR. ORIGINAL ENGINE, RUNS GREAT!!. NO TITLE BUT WE CAN GET ONE. $3900 OBO”
There have been a few changes. I can’t tell if this is a CJ-2A or CJ-3A.
“1948 Willys Jeep for Sale. In good shape considering how old it is. Runs, but needs fuel lines cleaned.”
http://littlerock.craigslist.org/cto/1965403563.html
This sure looks straight and solid. This appears perfect for a restoration if the underside is solid.
“Hard to find 1946 Willys Civilian Jeep with LOW miles – only 36,000 actual, original miles! Clean body. Needs windshield post for full restoration. Runs and drives. Good brakes, new battery. 4 cylinder, 3 speed. This is a rare vehicle and won’t last long. Would make a great restoration project!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
“As seen in photos, one complete Jeep with snow plow – title number BB25049. Purchased this Jeep from a local man who said it came from PA State Road of Turnpike. As you can see in the pictures, it is mostly complete. What I can see that is missing is the top radiator hose and oil breather, tube and can. It has dual defrosters, heater, radio and spotlight.The snow plow has a tag that reads Scheneker Iron Works Serial Number 8740 Model B. PLow is in decent shape for age, not bent. All hydrolics appear to be intact and complete. This Jeep is a perfect project vehicle for restoration.
The pictures also show a Jeep frame that I started as a project, the frame was sandblasted, repainted with Eastwood primer and chasis paint. All bearings were repacked or replaced. All new seals (front seal leaks, have not had a chance to look at it). New brake lines and master cylinder, shocks and spring shackles. Tires are new but have some sidewall cracking. I put all new tubes in them. It has a little surface rust from sitting out the past several months on the areas that are not painted. The tub that came off the frame has had all sheet metal replaced, it is ready for sandblasting and a little body work, then painting. The photos show rust but this is from the replacement metal not being painted. The motor and trans are on the skid in the photos. It did run when I started the project 3 years ago. It was clean but has some surface rust. The Vin # s BC51837 (with title).
The other 2 Jeeps shown are parts Jeeps, no titles. I can’t begin to list what I have taken off or what’s left, it was used on my project. Email with questions. There is also a skid with extra parts, some useable some not.
The Bantam Trailer, Vin # T3C362 (with title). I have original VIN plate, it is not on the trailer so no photo taken of it. It has had the floor replaced and the front part of the trailer (about 4″ up) has been replaced. Photo shows surface rust, just needs sandblasted. Tires are original will need replaced.
I had started restoring this Jeep 3 years ago but I’m running out of time and space and have moved on to other projects and need my shop back. Any questions, please email or call (304) 283-6787.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000
(08/22/2010) Rick is selling his CJ-2A. It looks like a solid runner with some good updates.
“231 V6 AMC (Similar to Buick V6); 4 Speed with External OD; New Soft Top; Extra Stock Wheels and Tires; Gas Tank Rack; Spare Tire; Winch; Full Roll Cage; 4 Core Alluminum Radiator; Converted to 12V.”
This looks pretty good.
“I absolutely hate listing my Jeep, logic and finances dictate however. I recently moved and now have nearly a one hundred mile commute… daily. I would like to offer my Jeep as a trade for a NICE family friendly, fuel efficient vehicle. I would like an AWD wagon (i.e. Outback or something similar), or a nice sporty sedan, etc, etc.
Jeep has two tops, doors, new tires (Geolanders), near new motor (Buick V-6), front/rear hitches, full cage roll bar, it IS the split window, has extra windshield, harness seats and belts. Runs and drives like a Jeep! Great rig and very capable of whatever you throw at it.
I’m flexible, but not open to insulting lowball offers. If you have a Geo Prizm to offer that’s fine, but plan to add something else to your offer. I have cars to drive to work, but each of them have a drinking problem. I work swing shift, so I can be reached in the mornings or late at night. If I get your message after work I will call you back the next morning, unless you indicate otherwise. I can be reached by phone at 2o8-nine3six-nine2seven8 or you can e-mail me by using the C.L. link. Thanks for looking!”

(09/02/2010) I’d like to see a better image of the top. I don’t think I’ve seen one of these. This thing sports some big front and rear bumpers, too.

UPDATE: Was on eBay
(12/26/09) This build looks interesting as it has some unique touches. The top is certainly unusual and is probably a relief on hot summer days. I’d like to get some more detail pics of this one.
“This jeep has given us much fun on off-roads and hunting trips. It hasn’t been driven on the highway since we have owned it. We trailer it to and from the mountains. We purchased it from the original owner, who bought it new in 1946 and has since passed on. We have made a lot of changes since we’ve owned it. These changes include diamond plate on part of the body, and we Rhino-lined the rest of the outside body, (has a small crack in Rhino-line on hood). Includes a wider wind shield than original. (see pictures) It has a removable vinyl top that converts easily into a bikini top. Zip-off side windows can be attached to the top. Removable vinyl covered half doors. Full front bench seat with saddle blanket seat cover and shoulder-strap seat belts. CB Radio with antennae, cassette/radio player and speakers. Tilt steering wheel. Oil, temp and volt gauges but no speedometer. Roll Cage. Gun rack above windshield inside holds 1 gun. Front and rear heaters. 12 Volt system with new battery. Front wiper on driver side. Auxillary front lights. Power Steering. Front-end has a little play in steering. Buick V-6 motor with electric fan and dual exhaust. 3 Speed manual transmission. M-M front outside locking hubs, hi-lo 4×4 levers inside. Front Disc Brakes. Rear Drum Brakes. Front and rear shocks. Mag Wheels with Wild Country Radials ATV 32×11.50 R15 LT Tires.
