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 .

Maybe an FC? Seller thinks it is rare. The four speed is what made me wonder if it is an FC.
“Rare 1958 Willys Jeep all Original except for the beautiful 3D Professional camo custom paint. very clean in and out majority of restoration has been done. Jeep runs great! the reason this vehicle is so rare it came from The Factory with 4 gear shifters And a Wench in front. the 4×4 is incredible, nothing can Beat It. blinkers, lights, even this cigarette lighter and winch in front Work. this is the ultimate hunting or 4×4 vehicle you must see It to Believe it give me a call”

Glenn spotted this jeep. Lots of pics and info on eBay.
“This particular early model year ’62 Jeep FC-150 4×4 truck was found in dry storage in the corner of a Texas barn by the current owner. It was last registered on the street in 1998 after some mechanical restoration efforts by the previous owner(Hurricane-4 Engine Rebuild) . Today it runs out strong and drives down the road, goes through the gears and is an overall solid and enjoyable FC-150 as is or could be restored to the level of your choosing. It has been lightly used around the farm and stored in a nice concrete floor shop here at the Texas owner’s private residence.”

About the Jeep Forward Control 150
A pick-up truck that was produced by Willys and then Kaiser Jeep from 1956 to 1965. It was also assembled in other international markets. The layout featured a cab over (forward control) design.
The Forward Control models were primarily marketed as work vehicles for corporate, municipal, military, as well as civilian use. Regular pickup box beds were standard, but customers were offered a large number of “Jeep approved” specialized bodies from outside suppliers.
Buyer is responsible for shipping fees, shipping arrangements, and pickup in Yuma, Arizona.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8000.

“willys cabover jeep ben sitting along time complete minus carb. no box. has a 4 cylinder. 3speed .4 wheel drive frame is solid .also 53 willys pick up no motor 600 for bolth or best offer”
UPDATE:**SOLD**
I took a look at this. I can send some other pics (Ann took them, but she’s busy at the moment so I can’t add them). If you have questions, drop me an email or contact Frank (see info below).
Frank and I tried to start it, but it didn’t start. It turned over strong and I verified a spark. It was getting gas, so I suspected it was flooded (and it was very cold outside). After I left Frank told me he was able to start it. It has a four speed and comes with an extra four speed (unsure of condition).
The front floors have a few holes as seen in the pic below (passenger side). I did not find any holes in the back rear corners.
Frank told me his brother had several jeeps. He may have assembled this DRW out of some of those parts or it may have been assembled by the previous. The issue is the serial number of 61568 23017, which, as I understand it, is a for an FC-170 rather than a Dually. Were FC-170s converted at the factory? I didn’t check for serial numbers and didn’t learn about the serial number issue until after I left.
From original ad: This FC is being sold by Frank King. The jeep runs and drives, but does need a spray of starter fluid to get going. The owner fixed up the exterior, but didn’t touch the interior. It includes an FC-170 bed that wouldn’t have been original to the dually. You can contact Frank at 509 999 6544 or email him at Frankckingatty@aol.com.
In the photo below there appear to be other jeep parts besides the bed. 
UPDATE :**SOLD** Was $7500.
Engine runs, but tank needs cleaning.
“This is not a j20 but a Jeep FC 170 cabover 3/4 ton pickup. Pretty much original, has an oversized fuel tank mounted in original location. The tank needs to be cleaned. Engine runs good from aux fuel source. odometer shows under 20,000 mi. Seats are at upholsterer to be covered in red fabric. Very little rust.
the pickup has not been driven in a long time, perhaps decades. No text or email, please , I cannot respond. ”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $4000.
Tony Osmundson is selling these FCs. You can reach him at 563-380-2740. he wants to sell them as a package. Three have titles. He hasn’t started them in a few years.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5200.
