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 .
Craig managed to snag some vintage concept Commuter FC photos off of eBay recently. He’s organized and posted them at http://thefcconnection.com/the_commuter.htm along with a brief history. The quality of these photos are excellent and could provide clues to recreating one of these, should someone have the money, time, and energy to tackle the project. The whereabouts of the three concept vehicles produced are unclear.
Here’s an image of one of prototype #2:
I has always been fascinated by the many concept vehicles and never ending variations of Willys Jeep vehicles. Back in the 1950’s when I was around 8 years old, I remember seeing pictures of these commuter FC’s in Popular Mechanics. I was so fascinated by the design, I would draw pencil sketches during class in the the third grade at St. Brendan’s in Clifton, NJ
It looks like the front and rear bumpers were the same, which would save cost in a prototype. Wonder if the step was any help in getting in?
Would like to find that gem hidden away in storage somewhere! 🙂
