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 .
Listed as a 1948 CJ-2A, the body looks to be CJ-3A. The front frame rails lack the gussets. Might be a good price.

“This 1946 willys cj2a jeep is in very good condition. The jeep runs is a real eye catcher. I bought it in great shape & added a lot more of new parts to it.”
The price has dropped on this 2A. At first, I thought the battery was located in the case attached to the PTO bar (looks similar to a plastic battery enclosure).

It appears to be $600 for all. The white body looks to be a 3A. I can’t tell what the bottom body is. At least one frame is a 2A.

This 2A has a replacement body, not an M-38 body. It may have some Allstate or Husky hubs.
“This is a titled 1947 Jeep. It has a M38 body and engine. This Jeep runs but currently has the fuel tank out since the tank it came with when I got it was for a CJ2A. I have a brand new M38 tank to install. I have also replaced three of the four brakes (cylinders and pads) and have the forth one plus master cylinder on hand. I just haven’t had time to install it. This sale will include both fuel tanks and the remaining brake parts and every thing you see in the photos and the spare M38 engine. This is a project jeep with straight body with no rust.
Lots of updates to this custom rig. It doesn’t seem a bad price?
