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 .

“1947 Willy’s Jeep cj2a, in-line 4 cylinder with 3 speed manual trans. Runs well when the battery is charged. It needs some work on the electronics and wiring. Have replaced many parts on the engine so runs really well. Needs work on the brakes and it leaks a little oil just because it’s so old. Brand new carb, ignition coil,etc. comes with windshield even though some pictures don’t show it. Great jeep to restore. Will need to be trailered back”
Not sure how much value is here.

https://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/pts/d/petaluma-two-willys-jeeps-all-parts-to/6904869055.html
“Great project for the right person. Bought for a project with son but son lost interest. Check out the pictures for all items included and come by to see them and the owner will give you the full tour !!!
We have one 1941 body, frame, drive line, (is 4×4) with a flathead engine and then a 1946 body with extra parts.
We have a clear title for the 1941.
$2,900.00 takes it all obo
Come by and take a look any day including weekends after 1pm. Located in Petaluma”
It seems a shame that these documents are released for public consumption. The price on these is quite high. It looks like the earliest tests on the theory of the Rotabuggy occurred in August of 1941, which is earlier than I would have thought.
View all the information on eBay
“1941 to 1944 – Original RAF confidential and restricted file of the most bizarre World War II invention, a “flying jeep”, which became known as “Hafner Rotabbugy”, or “Hafner Gyroplane” in honour of his chief inventor Raoul Hafner (1905-1980), Austrian born British helicopter pioneer and engineer, known for his major contributions to the aerospace industry.”
This is worth a closer look.

Tom’s selling his CJ-2A. He would consider a trade for a stock 1945 CJ-2A or some other kind of unique CJ-2A
“I have decided to list my 46 CJ2A for sale. It is a recent restoration. I have driven the jeep less than 50 miles since finishing. All body work and paint was professionally done by a custom rod shop. Body is Pasture Green as it was in 1946. New items include:
NDT Tires
Brake System
Wiring Harness (6V system)
Exhaust System
Side steps
Fuel Tank
Seat covers and cushions
This CJ2A also has a keyed coil. Started and generator have been rebuilt. All lights and gauges work. Jeep starts, runs, drives, and stops as it should. Motor was completely overhauled and is a quiet, tight motor. Transmission was worked over and shifts well. This is not a museum piece, but it is a solid rig. Price is $13,000. Clean IN title in my name. Jeep is located in Haubstadt, IN 47639. I would consider some sort of trade deal for a stock 1945 CJ2A or another CJ2A that is in original condition and has some unique features/options. Thank you for looking!”

Dana 44 axle in rear with new pinion seals and brake lines. Tub in rough shape, but very salvageable. Full Meyers hardtop in very good condition. Meyers Half cab in fair good condition. Dana 20 transfer case in good working order, T-15 3 speed transmission in good working order. Also includes 2 sets of wheels/tires: original steel rims with old school steel belted offroad tires and a set of American racing wagon wheels with BGF all terrains.
AX-15 5 Speed transmission with 70k miles on it, new clutch, Dana 300 transfer case already bolted to AX15 will also be included at asking price. No motor with this project at present, but AX15 gives you a lot of options (jeep 4.0, LSX swap, Mercedes Diesel, etc.).
You will need a trailer. Tub is off of the frame, both transmissions and both transfer cases are off of the frame. Frame is a roller at present: suspension and axles are in place. I have a trailer and can transport within New England for extra fee.
Photos below show current state as well as the last time the Jeep was together. everything has been stored in doors on stands since being taken apart.
reason i’m selling: family and I are moving and don’t know where we will end up just yet.”
It’s a project.
https://rochester.craigslist.org/cto/d/north-chili-1946-cj2a-project/6905931315.html
“I have a 1946 Chassis and body that is a good start to complete a CJ2A. Motor turns over but I have never tried starting it. The body is original steel and was stored in a garage for 40 plus years. Color is a greenish yellow, I don’t know if its was original and has just aged. It has a few panels which I would replace but is in very good condition, does NOT look like Swiss cheese. Chassis has complete drive train including axles, transmission, brakes and wheels. Tires are No Good. It was stored in Syracuse area for a number of years.
It has a few gussets to front frame horns and rear V brace needs replacing. I looked for over 2 years to find these items and are the best I could find. Only reason I am selling is I have temporary storage but can’t keep there long term. I have an early flat fender parts vehicle that can be part of the deal. I also have quite a few parts for various years and am willing to sell them as one lot. Don’t ask to buy individual parts etc.
I have an offer to buy everything if I don’t sell as semi complete units. I have a 1979 CJ5 also that needs extensive body work but frame and drive train are excellent. The 79 has NY title and it runs and drives with a temporary gas tank. I did not register it. 1979 has good General AT2’s all around. 1979 is $2600 or best offer. “
Body has some rust, but other parts included.
