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 .
Those seats look to be in good shape.

Listed as a 1947, this appears to be an early 1946, as it has the tool indents. I’m not sure how the seller decided upon the “original ID numbers” for the hood.
https://nwct.craigslist.org/cto/d/47-willys-jeep-cj2a/6688704616.html
“I bought this Jeep 2 years ago with the intent of using it as a second vehicle. It soon became obvious that it was to good at the tender age of 70+ years to put on the road on a daily basis. The original “Go Devil” L134 engine has been rebuilt. The original body with the exception of a few patches (See dashboard pic) is in excellent shape. Electrical system has been converted to 12 volt. Transmission, Transfer case, and Front locking hubs all in excellent working condition. I re-wired lights so that I could have signal lights, re-built the master cylinder, replaced the brake arm to correct “pedal wobble,” and replaced front end brake lines. Finally I re-painted the hood with original ID numbers and the “Broken” Invasion Circle Star. Tires are good, but in order to complete the “Military Look” it should have military tires (around $500 for a set).
There is also a canvas top (see last pic), but since it is not military, I removed it. It will go with the sale.
This is an excellent running Jeep at an excellent price. Price is firm. Please contact me only if you are a serious buyer.”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $5900
(07/06/2018) It’s supposed to run and drive.
“Selling a 1957 JEEP FC150. This is a very unique and cool looking truck. This truck spent most of its life in the west as it has very minimal body rust. The underbody is in great condition and is very solid. This FC will runs and drives
For what the truck would need to my knowledge would be a carb rebuild, new gas tank and the glass is cracked. Interior (two seats) need recovering. However its a great project and would look amazing when finished, i just don’t have the time. I’m here to sell”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2300.
The body’s rear wheel wells have been cut for a crawler.

The Henry Ford Museum’s digital collections contain a few interesting photos. It appears all of them can be purchased:
2. These images appear to be frame drawings for the Ford GP. The images aren’t reproduced well:

3. This image purports to be a December 1941 drawing of a set of GP springs, but by that time, Ford was gearing up for the GPW.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $9500
(06/16/2018) Column shift 2A that’s never been restored according to the seller.
“1946 Willys column shift CJ2A. This is a survivor and by that I mean it has never been restored, only maintained. This was purchased new by the same family who owned it for 70 years before I bought it. It was used on the families country home in upstate New York for hunting and fishing mostly and always garage kept. It has never been used to plow. Everything works as it should. It still has the generator but everything was converted to 12V long ago. Other things not stock include 2 taillights and directionals.
The top is original or period correct and the jeep was apparently always used with the top on. All the original hardware for the top is there. That said the top is unique as it’s original but it has some rips and the windows are cloudy. There were floor mats throughout that were removed prior to taking the pictures.The jeep starts, runs and sounds great. It will need a new exhaust. One picture shows the gages and the reading warmed up and at an idle. Column shift works well but going to 2nd takes a getting used too. Wooden box between the front seats is a 4 place rifle rack. The ID tags on the body, dash and frame are all present and with matching numbers. The body on this jeep while original has been “kept up on” over the years with body work as needed. Jeep is being sold with a bill of sale and a NH registration.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $3995.
(06/14/2018) One of the jeeps has a rear PTO.
