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 .
Franziska Gygax shared pics of this jeep on Facebook. He wrote, “Was made by Kaspar Gut a swiss carosserie maker. In the back is place for 4 swiss milk cans. And on the weekend you rebuilt the back to 1 seat for 2 people“
The black CJ-2A might run (top pic). You’ll need a big trailer.
“Lots of good parts!!! Must all go together.. ”

(03/17/2015) David spotted this unique, cool GPW Ford truck jeep. It even has a tilt bed.
“42 Ford tilt bed truck – 302 Mustang power – C4 automatic – 9″ rear end. Disc brakes on front, mag wheels, 2 fuel tanks, cloth interior. Currently on a Historical Vehicle license. Great driver. Formerly a magazine car, with copies to go with it.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800
(04/22/2014) Here’s an odd duck. Note the seller will thrown in the weight for only $100.
“For sale is a 1950 Jeep Willys truck with a snow plow and clear title. Registration was active until this spring and it has been used yearly for snow plowing. It runs and drives well, has a 72 horse power F motor with has a 3 speed with high/low 4 wheel drive. This Jeep started out as a farm implement and at some point in time it had the frame and body modified to accept the truck bed. The interior sports VW bucket seats. It will need brake work(currently very little brakes), exhaust, tires(have tread but very weather checked), has a bad spot on the ring gear, the windschield is cracked and it has rust. There are many directions that you could go with it from continueing to use it as a unique plow truck to making a 1 of a kind rat rod. It is being sold as is, needing repairs or for parts.”
This has some style.
“For sale, 1948 Willys CJA 4cyl, 4 WD, Runs and Drives, winch Can email pics if interested, 2450.00 Paul 586-419-8546”

(06/05/2013) I’ve never seen another jeep truck quite like it! Possible CJ-2L?
“Vehicle has been customized, lengthend and widened by adding Jeep Pick-up running gear and fenders.
has original 4 cylinder engine, and running gear. It is in good running condition. Owners manual included. More photos available”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
Does not run at the moment.
“Jeep Willy’s rat rod, Custom fabricated Jeep willys and Toyota/Nissan truck bed together with chevy 350 engine, 4bl carb, auto trans and 8 lug truck axles. 2wd. I purchased off ebay several years ago and had shipped to GA and it ran and lot drove then. (NOT STREET LEGAL, no turn signals/brake lights). frame is orginal jeep with extensions welded on to create longer wheelbase. It appears to be chevy suspension.
It has sat for over 3 years in my shop, so it will need to be towed and gas tank probably flushed out. I do not have to sell and will not accept any offers, just trying to help finance my home remodel/addition if possible if not I will keep this Jeep in the shop until I have time to finish.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4950.
It’s funky, but appears in good shape.
“Running gear is from a vintage CJ2A. Body custom built. Equipped with stock 4 cyl engine, 3 spd trans, hi-lo range and 4 wheel drive. Mechanically strong, good tires. Good title and vintage plates. A lot of fun to drive and to look at. Good business mascot, parade vehicle or use on you acreage, at the cabin or lake.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Buzz found this crazy looking CJ-2A.
“1946 Willys jeep with an old school repower. Has a 1950’s flathead ford engine, this jeep ran three years ago but needed a pull to get started. One head was removed to inspect the cylinders. It looks like this motor may have the original bore but is ready for a rebuild. The distributer was removed and is missing. I will throw one in if I can find one in the shed. The body behind the firewall is made of plywood and fiberglass, it was nicely made but alot of the wood should be replaced if you choose to keep it as is. Original jeep dash and front sheet metal is in good condition. The frame is mostly solid but does have some issues at the front of the rear leaf springs and it has been notched for the steering gear to clear the engine. The engine is coupled to the jeep transmission with a rare adapter. Will be sold with a clear 1956 Willys title. The buyer will have 30 days to pick it up, if you send a trailer I can help load.”
A little different.
“This was a frame up build project my son and I did 5 yrs ago. The frame was repaired and strengthen like the military version. Engine, tranny, transfer case, and axles all rebuilt. New leaf springs and shocks. All original running gear. Body made from 11gauge steel. Underbody Herculined protected. 12 Volt system. Electronic ignition system. Starts right up and is a fun drive. go anywhere!! this thing is great for the back words or hunting the deep woods or just plowing the driveway. Comes with an old jeep plow and tire chains. tires are in fair shape . a one of a kind. Call Bob at 603-547-2416”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $995
Bob’s jeep had about this much jeep left. Some used leftover parts and created something neat. I think that has some potential.
“1946 Jeep, Willy’s Overland, CJ2A. Serial No. 68995. Starts and runs good. Need Bonded Title. The brakes need wheel cylinders replaced. Original L-head Engine. Had a rod bearing replaced-runs smooth. New 6-volt battery. Good fuel tank. Transmission and transfer case shifts smoothly. 4 tires – just okay. The bench seat, is the back seat out of a suburban. Great for Ranch or just fun running around. This Jeep is BEAUTIFUL, but only in the eyes of the beholder!”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(06/02/2013) This might be worth a look.

Besides missing the rear of the jeep, it doesn’t have ww2 axles. So, I would suggest looking this over carefully.
“1944 GPW military flat fender Jeep – 5 new all directional tires (military stock) – runs perfect – 12 volt conversion – clean title and current registration –
PS: This is cash and carry ONLY – don’t bother me with the BS stories of being away, or being on an off-shore rig, or having your “agent” be in touch – I will not reply and simply forward your email to the scam and phishing folks at craigslist and local law enforcement.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3000

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $250
(03/10/2012) This is an oddball. I dont’ see that rim design too often.
“Selling an early 1945 Willys CJ2A Jeep. Frame in good condition. Originally a manual coulmn shift. Rear section of body was modified with a 1930s Ford pickup bed and tailgate. No engine, gearbox, or transfer case. Good for project, or parts.”

(09/02/2012) They broke the mold after creating this one. It includes a capstan winch.
“Willy’s jeep 1942. Has original 4 cyl. engine that purrs and doesn’t smoke. I’ve yet to see anther like this one, it is two seat with a pickup box behind. On the front bumper is an engine driven capstan winch, go online to “willy’s capstan winch kit” and you will see that this item alone sells for $3250.00 plus shipping. Also comes with an aluminum bolt on roof with two aluminum doors and an A-frame rig that bolts to the front bumper for pulling stumps and whatever. If you want to have a jeep that nobody else has, respond to this ad. I’ve had many people look at this jeep and they all agree that it appears to be made this way by the factory. You won’t find another like this one. No scams accepted, cash only.”

The auction for this has expired, however this is still an interesting vehicle that made the cover of the 1976 Four Wheeler Magazine. Looks like it is part jeep and part truck.

(02/14/2012) I thought this was unusual.
“1948 Willys CJ-2A for sale. Does not run. Was told by previous owner that it ran when he parked it 4 years ago. The frame has been cut and extended, and the back made into a pickup. Got it for a project and never had time for it. Make me an offer!

There are thousands of Willys and Jeep items over at eBay, but I’ve never had a chance to create the scripts necessary to sort and list them. However, support from readers allowed me to create multiple ebay-related sections that I think you’ll enjoy looking at as much as I have. You can get to them from the “eBay Listings” image at the top of the right column.
Now, even if I don’t do updates, you can still review hundreds of updated listings from ebay without having to go through ebay searches.
This is the only update tonight (Sunday Night).
BTW, check out this odd ball ebay listing:
After closer inspection this looks in good shape, despite the crazy body.
