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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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 .
Here’s a good price on three FC-150 and one wagon postcards. That’s a buy-it-now price.

The description doesn’t mention the midget car, but the ad includes six pics of the car itself, so my guess is that the car is included in the sale.

“The FC150 features a unique cab-over-engine design, where the driver and front passenger sit directly above the front axle, maximizing the cargo space and maneuverability.

It has a two-door cab with a flat windshield and a simple grille design at the front, bearing the iconic Jeep branding.

“This Willys 1947 CJ2A is the first civilian jeep after WWII.
The body was removed and separated into components-fenders,
hood, grill, windshield.
The floor channels were replaced with new ones.
The yellow color is as original. Because the components
were painted separately, the yellows tend to not match.
The motor, transmission, and transfer case were rebuilt.
The tires are new 600×16 white walls.
It has new seat covers by Beachwood Canvas.
It has a new roll bar.
A hard cab is available for purchase ($500.00).”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $21,000.
(01/14/2024) Thanks to Mike for sharing this Fresno-area modified flat fender. It’s got the stylish doors, the muller top, and many other updates. Note the care taken to build the front drive shaft around the automatic transmission.

For Sale: 1946 Jeep – A Vintage Gem for Restoration Enthusiasts!
Are you passionate about classic cars and eager to restore a piece of history to its former glory? Look no further! We are thrilled to offer our 1946 Jeep for sale – a true automotive treasure in remarkable condition, with unique features that set it apart.
Key Highlights:
(VEC) Rare Original Matching Plates: This 1946 Jeep comes with an extraordinary set of original matching plates 28210 – the Dash Plate, Body Plate, and
Frame Plate are all intact. These plates are not just a testament to its authenticity but also a collector’s dream.
Excellent Condition: Considering its age, this Jeep is in exceptional shape. It exhibits minimal rust and provides the perfect foundation for a restoration project that will turn heads and preserve a piece of automotive history.
Engine Anomaly: The engine in this Jeep has a +798 difference between the engine number and other plates, fear not! Willys utilized these engines for various purposes, pulling them from the assembly line for gas engine
generators during that era. This is why Willys engine numbers will not match.
No pics provided.

“1947 Willy’s cj2a runs pretty’s good slight miss, could use tune up. Clean title. Factory -go devil- 35-40 oil pressure when hot. Brakes, transmission and 4×4 work as well. Multiple paint jobs over the years lots of extra parts. Frame in good shape as well, body is very straight but few spots of rust on lower sections but very restorable condition. Found another project I am going to focus on.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7800.
This has some updates including a fiberglass Bobcat hood. Appears worth a look. (Restored to military livery? …. ) … Engine will need work.
“1946 Willys CJ2A Jeep for sale! restored to WWII military livery. Post-WWII, the simple yet iconic all-wheel drive GP, or General Purpose Vehicle, remained in production by Willys with the model designation CJ2A. This Willys has it all. Roll cage, electric wipers, new top, great tires/rims and more custom items. Very clean for a post war vehicle. This is a surviver to the fullest ready for the next adventure. There are some engine issues which are stated below. Hate to sell it but have many vehicles in my collection and this one is going to a new home. The Willys is located in Valley Center at my other mechanics house and he will be fielding all the inquiries and has all the knowledge to show it. He’s a great friend and master mechanic. Here are the details:
Body and undercarriage restoration, very clean. Replacement early 50’s willy’s engine. Lifted and new tires. Three speed. New interior and top, with optional bikini top and car cover. Seat belts and parking brake added.
Clean california registration.
Vintage 1946 plates, approved through CA DMV with 2024 tags. Odometer says 54,000 but there is many more miles on this 50’s motor. Has only 500 after it was all restored.
Here are the issues: The engine threw a rod and my mechanic James from James Automotive down in Barrio Logan inspected and here is his diagnosis.
It’s a F Head jeep engine from the early/mid ‘50’s.
Combines a flat head with an overhead valve.
The piston in the front cylinder basically disintegrated for some reason. Connecting rod as well. And badly damaged that cylinder.
To fix you need to take engine out. Disassemble it. Rebore the cylinder. Put a new sleeve in that cylinder. Replace the oil pump, which could have caused all of this. New gaskets and seals.
Then put it all back together and back into the Willys.”
Andy shared this ad, one that includes parts of an overdrive, condition unclear.
