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.
Mike shared this wagon. This could be worth a look.
“This is a diamond of an antique auto,barn find original owner kept it in a heated garage.for most of its life,has all maintenance records n original title n owners manual.selling locally also so listing can end anytime unless bid is made.classic time piece.”
This has a dual PTO and what I believe are Free-Lock branded Dualmatic hubs.

“I picked this up as a barn find about three years ago without seat frames, seats, wheel/tires, etc.
I have a considerable amount of time and money into it to get to this point.
Here are the details:
Clear title in hand.
The tires are brand new with less than 5 miles on them.
Seat covers are brand new.
Engine has good compression, starts and runs fine. Transmission shifts as expected.
Top has some yellowing on the clear plastic and a zipper that needs to be fixed. I understand there is a product that can mitigate that issue.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
(12/24/2018) This might be worth a look.
“For sale is a custom 1947 Willys CJ2A. The jeep itself is about 80% of the way done. It needs some light electrical and brake work, I am selling because I have too many vehicles and not enough time for this one. This jeep will make one cool camping rig when finished. Specs are as follows:

“CJ2A Jeep project
This project will suit the rock crawler
Here’s what I’ve got in parts
3/4 ton eight bolt pattern axles that have been shortened (Don’t know the gear ratio)
Square tube frame
CJ2A flat fender Jeep body
1967 Chevy One ton 350ci engine w/4 speed trany (should have 4 bolt main 202 valves)

Has some floor patches.
https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/pts/d/bainbridge-island-cj2-body-tub/6796910049.html
“CJ2 body tub with Ax and Shovel indents like the WWII Willys MB or Ford GPW; AND it has the tailgate in the back like the CJ2A’s. It is in restore-able condition. All the body fabrications/sub-assemblies are readily available on line. Not the greatest shape; but rare enough that it is worth restoring over the standard CJ2A body. Will fit in a full size pickup.
This tub could always be fitted with the gadgets to carry the Ax and Shovel – all the gadgets, straps, and even ax and shovel are available on line. It probably wouldn’t be stock to do this but it would be cool!
Asking $550. Would consider trading for other early flat fender parts. ”
This article about Charles Sorenson was published in the Evening Star in conjunction with “My Life with a Jeep” on July 15, 1945. The issue also included a photo of the newly release CJ-2A (which didn’t scan well into black and white).
Lots of updates on this highly chromes/stainless flattie.

This looks nice. It’s listed in the East CT Craigslist and has CT plates, but the associated map places it in Independence, KS. I’m not sure why ….
“Early jeep cj2a

The hood looks to be fiberglass or home made.

“1946 Willy’s Jeep. Great condition. Complete drive train just rebuilt”
May have some parts value. Engine spins.
https://cnj.craigslist.org/cto/d/bangor-1946-willys-jeep-4×4-parts-or/6794558941.html
“what you see is what I have, its 4 wd, 3 speed standard on the column, two shifters on the floor, drivetrain is complete, we almost had it started, lost spark, so engine should be good, this Willys has no papers, and it is stored in Pennsylvania, Bangor Pa. North of Easton not too far from NJ, rolls, and steers for loading.”
This is supposed to be a CJ-2A chassis, but I don’t see the older transfercase support on the outside of the frame (maybe it is a late ’48?). This may also have a Porter and Reed hardtop.

“48 Jeep. Have title but is not in my name can have it transferred to me first if you prefer. Partial restoration has begun. Motor has been rebuilt and frame has been painted. Probably needs some bushings etc replaced but overall in great shape. Body is rough and someone has started cutting panels but didn’t finish. All cut outs are there along with new fabricated panels. Some complete some not. Most parts are there. Even have a hard top roof for it and doors but the glass is broken. Still Restin but not Rusting anymore. Parts are Not for sale. ALL OR NOTHING”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5900.
This runs and stops. It still needs some work. The body has been painted, so the pics were taken over time.
“Selling for a friend of mine a 1952 Willys jeep m38. The m38 is a limited production military jeep, often referred to the best of the flatfender jeeps. This one is a project but comes with most of the parts needed to complete it including an orginal body tub that has had all the metal work completed. The jeep does run, drive, and stop”
This could be a good price.

“I have brand new in box, never on the jeep, soft doors and top. Tan in color. Fits early cj5. Was bought for my 62 Willys cj5. I don’t want to run a soft top anymore. I don’t have any of the bows for the top. Price is $200. Will not separate.”
Seller is selling only certain items. It looks like the body has had some work around where the drain holes should be.
