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 look like early solid disc rims to me.
“1943 Ford GPW (Jeep). Ford & Willy’s built them during WWII. New top w doors. Needs brake master rebuilt and new brake lines installed, I have the parts already. It runs great and the trans is in great shape, doesn’t pop out of gear which is a common issue with these old jeeps. No huge rust holes, in good shape for being in Hawaii for 70+ years.”

I doubt there is much left of the CJ-2A here. Maybe the grille?
“I’m currently working on a hand built Rubicon style rock buggy that started life as a 1946 Willys flatfender Jeep. I’m still tinkering and working on it when time allows, but I’m willing to let it go if someone wants to make a decent offer. This project is still a long way from being finished but the chassis is fully welded, suspension is complete minus shock mounts, drivetrain is positioned, engine accessories in place, radiator mount mostly finished, etc. A lot of tube work, body work, all the small details, and finishing work are still needed.

A front crossmember has been added. Sometimes that means a different engine has been installed.

If the data plates are original to the jeep, then this was likely manufactured in 1946.

“Up for sale is my 1948 Willys Cj2A. It runs and drives very well. It’s on 16-6.00 military tires in good shape with about 60-70% tread or so. The engine is an L134 flathead with aftermarket air cleaner set up with a K&N cone filter and foam pre-filter. Other than that it’s relatively stock, and runs strong with good oil pressure, fresh points, and a new coil. The Transmission and transfer case are also stock to my knowledge, other than the Warn overdrive added to the transfer case giving the jeep another set of forward gears. The T90 3 speed shifts well and the synchronizers seem to be in good shape. Unfortunately, both the transmission and transfer case leak oil at the input shaft and rear output shaft respectively. However, a full seal kit for both is included in the sale of the jeep. Continue reading
Still some project left in this jeep.
