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 .
Great action photo. Interesting mix of tires.

Looks like a good price.
“1946 CJ2A F4-Type motor runs and drivers. 4 wheel drive all works. Needs work to be road worthy. Tow bar. Push out windshield works. Tires in very good shape like new. Bucket seats. Brakes need work. New ignition system. Most electrical works.
1954 CJ3B no motor but has everything else. Bench seat in great shape. Extra motor parts (V6). Soft doors. Fold down windshield works.
$3000 or best offer for both. Will sell individually. Great for a summer project. Can deliver if needed within reason.”
Robert’s got his nice looking column shift up for sale.
“I’ll certainly miss it, but it’s time to put my column shift, 1946 CJ2A up for sale.
The body is in great condition. Of course it’s been painted some time during it’s 71 years. There is no visible rust. The floorboards and hat channels are solid. In case you didn’t know, the original willys floors were reinforced with thin metal C channels filled with wood. It was the perfect solution during the war, but the rotting wood quickly rusted the floors. Not this Willys. It’s still solid and original. Spending most of it’s life in California is probably the reason.
The engine was replace by the guy I bought it from. He said it’s a Jasper replacement engine. It’s also been converted to 12v out of a 1960s chrysler. I had the transmission rebuilt, along with all of the supporting parts (clutch, presure plate, throwout bearing, etc..) about 500 miles ago. That wasn’t cheap.
In the years that I’ve owned it, I’ve put less than 2000 miles on the odometer. In that time I’ve replace the following items.
16″NDT tires
Complete reproduction wire harness
Restored Carter carb with glass filter
Reproduction gauges
Fuel level sending unit
Rear seat
I’m sure there’s more I’m forgetting, but you are welcome to look through the folder full of receipts that I’ve kept.
I also have quite a few extra parts. Things like a vacuum wiper motor with line, a head, soft top bows, another transmission and much more.
The problems with it are a stuck horn button, the E brake doesn’t work, the carb needs adjusting (it backfires through the exhaust when you shut it off) and there is play in the steering.
Overall is an excellent, well preserved, CJ2a that I would not be afraid to drive anywhere. Add to that the fact that the column shifts were only produced for the first year and a half of production and you wind up with a very desirable old Jeep.
If you are serious about buying an old Jeep, don’t let this one slip by you. Column shifts in this condition don’t come along very often!”

Mark Smith from warjeeps/sellajeep/jeeptrucks.com shared these jeeps up for auction in Auburn, CA. Bidding ends May 18th.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7000.
This appears worth a look.
“This is an authentic 1954 Willys Jeep. It was given to my dad by the original owner, my dad passed it to my son who has absolutely no interest. I need to sell to pay for last year of college tuition. Original hard top, stored inside. This vehicle has always been stored indoors. Includes a new wiring harness my dad wanted to install before his health failed. No electrical issues, he just always was “piddling” with this fun little vehicle. Soft top included which has a value of about $800. This price is NOT NEGOTIABLE, I have done the research and price is fair and reasonable. Only serious inquiries from collectors will be answered. Title is clear and in hand.”
Has some non stock items.

Nick’s got this militarized CJ-2A for sale.
“For sale is a Jeep I shipped from Las Vegas. The Jeep is nearly rust free. It runs, drives, and stops. Lights work. Clear title.
It was a part of the infamous Phil Maloof auto collection, owned by the curator with a mechanic on staff. The collection has been visited by Jay Leno and Pawn Stars. This Jeep sat next to Duisenbergs, Rolls Royces, Lincolns, and V-16 Cadillacs.
-New canvas top, seats
-New tires
-Somewhat recent engine rebuild
-Saginaw steering – turns like butter
-Early style engine & full floating rear axle
It sat this winter – and could use some carb tuning/rebuild to run smoother.
Paint job isn’t the greatest. Other than that, this is a very nice vehicle that you can enjoy during the summer. It’s nearly impossible to find an original condition Jeep in the midwest that hasn’t been patched up. Only patched area is under the toolbox.”
