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 .
These two items from the San Juan Scenic Jeep Trip business were on eBay, so I snagged them.
This postcards shows a FC Tour Jeep climbing a steep trail.
This tri-fold brochure is undated. It has some good photos and artwork. These first three images show the front side of the brochure.
This is the inside of the tri-fold:
I noted that the post card was done by Petley Studios in Phoenix. they were the largest producer of color postcards in the US at one time. Bob Petley also owned stores in Oray and Silverton Colorado, so it would have been natural for him to produce the artwork for Scenic Jeeps Tours. Mr.. Petley sold the business in 1984 and passed away in 2006 at 93 years of age. Maybe the FC-170 is the one that Craig Brockhaus owns and shows at various Jeep shows around the country.
Thanks Colin, that’s some info I didn’t know.
I am pretty sure Craig could identify it.
