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 on eBay
Looks nice.
“This is a 1948 Willys Jeep CJ2A All Original. This is a complete frame off restoration every piece was either replaced or rebuilt like new. The electrical system is still the original 6 volt with real original cloth covered copper wiring. Even the real beep horn. I have the new black canvas complete top still in the box that has never been installed. IT RUNS AND DRIVES LIKE BRAND NEW.”
UPDATE: This appears to have sold. Was listed for $3500.
Restoration in process, but unclear if it runs or not.
“1943 Jeep Willys. Nice project that is half way to restoration. Dad started but I am unable to complete. Title listed as “flood damage” but I don’t know why.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
Needs motor rebuilt.
“1947 Willy’s Jeep with F-134 motor, 3spd, 8,000lb. winch, dual batteries, 6 BFG mudd terrain tires, 2 of them brand new. I do have original motor L-134 and spare transmission. The motor ran before I pulled it out, but does need rebuilt. Jeep also has spring over lift with no death wobble. Jeep comes with many spare parts. Runs great and has been fun!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was 8500.
Looks good. I wonder which four star general the seller means.
“SEMI RESTORED WILLY’S JEEP; ORIGINAL 6 CYLINDER; 4 SPEED; REAL 4 STAR GENERAL’S JEEP FROM US ARMY”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
This is a project.
“So Heres the deal I have this willys jeep project I started years ago. The tub is fiberglass, stretched 15inches by a fiberglass shop. I have a roll cage that was built by a offroad shop in utah. the whole thing is mounted on a chevy fram with skid plates for the engne tranny and fuel tank. There is a cage in the engine bay tied into the main cage. Was set up with a SBC 350…. I will sell the body for 1700 OBO I have over 3500 in it already, on top of the glass work and extension I had diamond plate kickguards with step reinforcements built as well as aluminum Tread plate on the inside and a tread plate top rail. Would take 2500 OBO for the chassis body and cage. The rear bumper has a built in reciever and swinging tire carrier the front bumper has build in winch mount.”
Bob sent me a note that Allen Boyd, Aka West Fork Boyd, passed away. He was a good friend to many CJ-2A Page readers. You can learn more here at the CJ-2A Page.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000
There looks like value here. I”m guessing it is currently running off rather than on.
“All original 4 cylinder, has been running off and on for the last 10 years. Last problem was a fuel pump and haven’t tried to start it since. Has been in my family for over 40 years. Do not have title. Please call if you have any questions”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000.
This looks pretty good for the price.
“1948 Willys CJ-2a for sale. Runs great, only needs starter switch. Original 4-cylinder engine. $3,000 OBO.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4900.
This looks like a good rig.
“1949 Willys Jeep $4900.00 firm V6 225 motor , transmissiom, transfer case, and rear ends out of a 1968 Jeepster.373 gears. M38 body, 12 volt system.”

“hi i have a jeep i need to get rid of. email me at

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500
“A long family history with a short ending brings this ole Jeep for sale. Foregoing the story, this Jeep has been significantly worked over to restore and improve reliability, a show Jeep was never part of the plan.
Overview: Original 4 banger flat head engine overhaul (has about 50 miles since), transmission tune-up and seals, brakes, 12 volt conversion, frame mounts, wiring harness, paint top and bottom, and several other miscellaneous pieces, parts, and repairs. Pretty much stock bumper to bumper.
It runs well, rides and drives like the Jeep that it is. Considerably more invested than asking, clear title and yes, the Jeep can is part of the deal.”
This is a nice looking rig.
“1948 Restored Willys Jeep. 350 Small block. Muncie Rock Crusher 4 speed. Great Condition. Our dad was a Willys Jeep enthusiast. He rebuilt 50+ Willys Jeeps in his lifetime. He rarely drove this jeep the past 10+ years due to health limitations. The jeep has always been stored in a garage. The top is like new and includes doors. The jeep has a full roll cage that is welded into the body. Comes with an extra windshield and a hood that has a hood scoop and stripes that match the striping on the jeep. The hydraulic clutch has a leak and the gas gauge doesn’t work. There are a few small chips around the door channels where you get in. Other than that the jeep is in fine running condition. A extremely nice vintage vehicle that will provide someone with a lot of fun.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1695.
This appear solid.
“1946 Willys Jeep w/PTO winch. Fix and use it, or many good parts Seems too good to just part out, has great potential to be complete.
Motor seems sound, 3speed transmission needs some work. Functions, but not correctly. PTO winch works good.”
It could use paint, but otherwise seems solid.
“48 Willy’s Runs good, new head gasket , 327 Chev motor , also with windshield, $3000 obo.. you pick up.. Call and ask for Nick 928 768 9137 or cell 702 577 5993”

Comes with wagon wheels? Does this mean it is a wagon? No pics provided.
“Comes with wagon wheels and tires has straight body call 903-812-0342 contact via email for a pic”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was for Trade
“i’m selling a 1952 flat fender jeep …7,000 invested welcome for offers..will consider trade as long as same value (like truck,car,zero turn mower(((((EQUAL VALUE)))))”
The body is supposed to be in good shape.
“1954 Willy,s CJ3B. Original, complete, does not run. No top. Spun a rod bearing about 10 years ago and has set since. Head is pulled, but all parts there for the original 4 cylinder engine. Brakes shot, needs brake and wheel cylinders. Transmission worked when it was running, but will not shift now as there was no trans boot. No PTO or winch. Now the good. The body is in decent shape for the age has some typical rust and older repairs It has 5:38 gears from the factory. Comes with a front tow bar, but probably should be trailed home. 3 tires hold air, the 4th will long enough to get it loaded. I will provide a bill of sale and the original title that I never submitted to the state to get transferred. I will include a original repair manual. I have to many projects and will never get to this one. A good project jeep for less than the price of a replacement tub. $1000.00 cash firm. Located in Chanute, Ks. Call 620-212-3205”

Not a real good start at all on a ‘vintage army jeep’, but a fine start on a civilian jeep.

So is that thing attached to the hood?
“1946 Willys CJ2A. Runs and drives really good, has a 350 V8, Seats, and Steering column out of a 1969 Camaro. It also has the saginaw steering conversion so it’s nice and stable at highway speeds. It has a chevy 3 speed manual transmission and it is currently 2 wheel drive with a straight axle up front. Unlike most jeeps of the era, this one has a real tall rear gear so it’s more than capable of going 70 miles an hour (it’s only turning 2500 rpms at that speed!). It has new tires, radiator, distributor, battery, gas tank, plug wires, all new brakes (master cylinder, wheel cylinders, shoes, and brake lines). The frame has been fully boxed in so the jeep can handle all the extra power of the V8. The engine has an Edelbrock Performer RPM Air Gap intake manifold and an Edelbrock 600 CFM 4 barrel carb. Since its really light, it gets 18 mpg which isn’t bad for a carburated V8. It comes with a Tiger Top that’s in pretty good shape, with one small slit in the roof that shouldn’t be too hard to repair.
Now for the bad, the outside is really rusty. The wheel wells are the worst, and are pretty rotted. I’ve welded in new metal to patch the floorboards, and I then coated the floors with 3 coats of POR15 and 3 coats of Rhino-Liner to keep them from rusting again. The frame and underside are actually in great shape and pretty much rust free. This would be a great candidate for a rat rod, or you can buy a whole new steel or fiberglass body and make it look great! I’m moving into an apartment for my new job, so all the toys need to go. It comes with an extra hood and grill. I’m asking $1500, no trades. Call 563-650-1965 if interested!”

Mostly suraface rust. $800 or will trade for fourwheeler or motorcycle If serious email me your name & number and I will call you or just email me and if I think you are really interested I’ll give you my number if you are more comfortable with that.”

I think this probably scrap .. but you never know
“2-Early 60’s Willys Jeeps $600. Both are currently not running. Bodies almost completely gone, see pictures below.
One was last running two years ago, it was used to level off a yard area. When the brake lines broke, it was parked, it still turns over but does not start. It has a plow with hydraulic lift only, it worked when it was put away. No battery.
The second Jeep was gotten for parts years ago, at the time I was told the head gasket was bad, I never checked.
I believe the drive train on both is complete.
No paper work, neither have been registered for over 20 years.
I’m selling them for $600 firm, because I will get just over that for scrap. If no sale is made they are going to the port.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500
Here’s a later model CJ-5 with a rear PTO. This looks like a good price!

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
(05/29/2011) This appears solid, but unclear why the seller has only driven it two miles.
