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: Still Available.

Some of the folks from Alaska Or Rust got together last weekend for a trip into the Blue Ridge Mountains via Skyline Drive, Shenandoah National Park, Rockytop Overlook, Blue Ridge Parkway, and a few other places (I don’t have a map of their exact route). If you have Facebook, you can view all the pics Bill Reiss took here: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10156047526007987&set=a.10156047528832987&type=3&theater
See a sampling of Bill’s photos below:
Mike shared this unusual wagon that was supposed to be one of seven modified for use by the US military in Austria (I thought Holden modified wagons in Australia??).
View all the information on eBay
“Extremely rare version from the production in the Holden plant Australia. It was only 7 pieces produced !!! Please compare that you have Google images, they will not be found.
Special attention to the moldings and door buckles. 100% rarity with rarity value, value increase etc. etc. 89,200 KM
The vehicle is from military use of the US Army in Austria during the occupation and was one of the oldest military vehicles of the Austrian. Society of the Red Cross in 1951 in Austria.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $12,000.
‘Tim’s got this nice looking truck for sale.
“This truck is in very good mechanical condition. It had a major rebuild by the previous owner and all the important mechanical components/systems were rebuilt, replaced, or confirmed to be in good working condition. Truck came from New Mexico so the frame and body steel are very solid with minor rust. It is 99% original or appropriate replacement parts. The body and paint is what you would expect for a truck that’s 64 years old, the usual scratches, minor rust, and dings. F head 134 Cubic inch, four cylinder, three speed, Hi Low range, 4WD. It’s a great truck to just drive for fun or a good candidate for the next level of restoration.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
TJ’s got this project 3B for sale. Includes additional parts and an overdrive.
“This is a running and driving project, with a Buick V6 and 3 speed. Will need the tail lights rewired and an alignment to make it road ready.
Recent professional carburetor rebuild, new tune up parts, and all new metal and rubber brake lines and proportioning valve, on an ATV Manufacturing 4 wheel disc brake conversion.
New shocks, steering stabilizer, and 33 x 12.50 x 15 Nitto Grapplers on New American racing wheels.
Pictured are new and used parts to update the Jeep, new ATV overdrive and power steering conversions, seat belts, used Weiand intake and Holley carburetor, new headers, power steering pump. brake booster, etc.
The rear axle is a Dana 44, regeared with posi unit to 4.88 ratio. Gears, posi unit, and bearing kit are included to do the front axle.
Not pictured is the front hoop, tubes, and plates to complete the front roll cage.
The Bestop top and doors is good, two areas pictured could use repair.
The transmissions are a Borg Warner Super T-10 with shifter and Advance adaptor, and another T-10 for parts.
The paint is fair to good, with areas like the factory seam below the door openings where it looks like poor prep or someone trying to disguise the factory seams there. Frame and front sheet metal are excellent, no rust or rot. The tub front floors have been patched at some point in it’s life.
Available most days and evenings to show.”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $900.
It’s an FC body on a CJ-5 chassis.
“As a project that’s why it’s in parts! Have a clean straight body coe Jeep sitting on a lifted cj5 4wd frame with 3/4 ton axels. No motor no trans body and rolling chassis. Need gone open to offers”
Looks like there’ some value here.
https://spokane.craigslist.org/pts/d/48-willys-flat-fender/6717401369.html
“Parting out a 48 Jeep, whole or parts I just need the front Differential. Everything is in pretty decent shape but the front floor have been patched, but not very well and probably need to be redone. The frame has been converted to use YJ springs. I believe the Dana 60 in the rear is out of a 76 Ford 3/4 ton truck and measures 67 inches wide WMS to WMS, and I believe it has 4.10 gears in it but I would have to double check.
Body: $100
Frame: $100
Springs: $50
Teraflex YJ revolver shackles: $50
Top: $100
Dana 60 rear: $100 Continue reading
Confusing Ad. The title is “Willys 1946 Jeep CJ2A – $2000” and a description of “2014 Ford Escape SE-Extremely Clean!”

Here is a video of the jeep running and driving 7/29/2018:
“For sale is my 1946 Willys Jeep CJ2A. Runs great, stops as well as a 1946 jeep ever could. New front brake shoes/wheel cylinders, master cylinder and hardware last year. New front and rear pinion seal this year. Reproduction windshield frame, glass does have two small cracks, please see the pictures. This is a 12 V conversion. Headlights and tail light work, but brake light does not – I suspect it is the switch. No turn signals. Horn doesn’t work, but there is a functional siren. New Coker Firestone tires last year and the wheels were professionally sandblasted and powder coated at that time.

“I have a 1946 willys cj2a I had intended on keeping. Time to move it on I think. Currently all bone stock besides 134f engine and rims. The engine was what I believed to be a runner until I discovered a couple burned valves a month or so ago pulling head off. But between that the jeep seems in fair shape. Has a newer best top soft top and door. I had gathered parts for this build to install a 84/85 Buick grand national v6 turbo motor in. Have wiring harness computer, but missing fuse box and any wiring needed for dash. Motor is complete. I was going to put an sm465 behind engine (still in doner vehicle) with a dana 300 tcase already twin sticked. I had a wide track dana 30 front axle with 4.10 gears I was going to install in front. No current rear axle as I haven’t found one I wanted yet. Would make a good project for. Best to email me for any additional questions. Selling for 4300 obo with everything or trade for a smog exemp cj5 71-75 preferred.”
