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 .
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
There’s a little rust, but otherwise looks solid. Probably won’t take much to get it running I bet.
“Jeep FC-150
Straight and solid.
Has not run in years.
Worthwhile project
Very complete except missing driver’s door window.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900.
(04/13/2012) “Hello, I have a 1958 Jeep FC 150, its 4 wd, and was running about 4 years ago, its in need of a total restoration.
These jeeps are highly collectible, I want to keep it, but can’t seem to get it shipped out to me in Boston.”
UPDATE: Still Available
Complete Ramsey winch and front bumper for Willys Jeep fc170. Seldom do you see the complete set like this, would take quite a bit of time to track all the parts down. It is a heavy beast so shipping is something to consider. Wife likes to travel so might make some arrangements to deliver. Have more pictures if you want them.
The bumper has brackets for a front hitch that Bubba put on but you can easily grind them off. There is a dent in the bumper, how they could have done it I don’t know, but I think Bubba had something to do with that also. Anyway, I think it adds character and a story (no charge). Bumper was sand blasted and then painted with POR 15.
Prior owner said he cleaned and overhauled the winch and it looks like he did.
The PTO is not in the pictures but will go with it. Right now it is on MY FC because I haven’t found the cover plate to replace the PTO. I know I have one but it is in a very safe and secure place right now.
As far as I know it is complete but what you see is what you get.
Have some other fc parts for sale: gas tank, seats, rolling frame with engine, radiator, axles.
check out my other ad for fc170, can negotiate on a package deal.

There appears to be value here.
“Rare Jeep Forward Control (FC-150) pickup. This was someones project in the late 70’s that never got finished. Has the original frame, willys wagon axles, Ford inline 6 (believe it to be 170). The interior is gutted and there is no steering column or gauges. Bed would have to be modified around the fenders to fit because of the wider willys axles.
Previous owner had the truck since 1973. Clear title. 541-701-1781”

UPDATE: Price was $2500. **SOLD**
Engine is out. There is a minor title issue.
“Up for sale is a 1960 Forward Control FC-150 truck. This is an amazing original condition truck that has been kept under cover for the last 10-12 years I’ve owned this truck. This truck has the original two-toned paint still on it! There is NO rust in the usual places for these trucks. No cancer (rust through) that I can see, just minor surface rust. This is the first year of the wider axels for better stability. I was converting this truck to a Buick V6. I have most the parts, including the engine, bellhousing, flywheel, clutch & exhaust. The engine is currently NOT installed in the truck. Installed in the truck is the original transmission, with WARN OVERDRIVE. It is a 4×4. The drivelines are installed as well. It does have the engine cover that goes inside the cab! Back fenders are slightly modified, but could be returend to original shape. Modified to fit a 5 gallon gas can on either side. This was a good idea as it adds weight over the rear axels. Breaks do no work in the thuck however, the emergency break does. Front windshild is in good shape, which is the important one! Back & side windows need glass replaced. The side windows do roll up & down. Tires hold air but are old. I have the title to this truck. However, the husband signed over and the wife did not as she had passed away. Oregon DMV said that to correct this You need to get a death certificate which can be obtained from the state or county. OR if you turn in the title to DMV and it shows the person as deceased, there is no issue.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7000
Mark has this over at jeeptruck.com.
“I am selling my 1961 Jeep FC170.
Engine: L226 Flat Head 6 cylinder, re-gasket and bearings in 2006
Trans: T98A 4-speed, new Kevlar clutch in 2006
Dana 18 T-case rebuilt in 2006
Dana 44 closed knuckle front diff 4:88 ratio
Dana 53 Rear diff 4:88 ratio
Vacuum assist brakes
Wood stake bed with removable sides and ends
Awesome Marine grade chrome and stainless exhaust stacks that are for real and working
In 2005 -2006 this Jeep went through an engine rebuild, new upgrade wiring, t-case rebuild, front differential knuckle seals, bearings, Rancho shocks. I have not done any restoration to the body, it is the same as I acquired it.
A little history of this truck: previous owner purchased it at an FBI auction in Florida. It had 7″ of lift on it. They brought it back to Toledo, Ohio where it sat behind a building getting rocks thrown at it, where we bought it. I got it running within 3 days with carb rebuild but only on 5 cylinders. Took out the scary lift kit and engine the next winter and went through it along with the transfer case and clutch. The wiring was mouse eaten in places so a total rewire was in order. Then came brake lines, M/Cylinder, fuel lines (3/8″ stainless), front knuckle seals and wheel bearing pack. Amsoil 80w90 in all trans, t-case, front and rear diffs.
It’s not all in original form or function, some improvements have been made to the electrical and mechanicals. but it is a driver and head turner whenever I blow the dust off it here in Toledo. I’ve had it to the GM Powertrain Park N Shine show many times and have been blessed to meet a few of the people that worked at Jeep that remember working the assembly line building them, just to see the expression on their faces to see one again. I always let them or the young ones sit in it.

This looks good. It looks restored as a M676, though it probably really is a FC-170.
“1962 Willys FC 170 Jeep older restoration, 226 superhuricane 6 cyl. new master cal, 5 new NDT military tires, NY licensed and inspected”
Doesn’t run.
“What i have here is a 1959 Willys jeep fc150 4×4. These are super rare and getting harder to find. This one is “mostly” complete if you wanted to put it back to stock.There is no interior at all. But thats not what I had in mind. This would make a cool rat truck. I have a 40 ford drop axle for the front, and a late model chevy rear end for the back. 5 speed chevy trans and a short block 350 that has just been rebuilt about 5000 miles ago. I have a set of heads and a 4 barrel intake and carb and a set of headers. Trans comes with a good clutch assembly. 1/2 gal of sublime green paint goes with this project. Strapped to the back is a jeep inline 6 and a 3 speed jeep trans and transfer case. I have never heard them run but was told the motor is good. It turns freely.I also have a set of 50 chevy rear truck fenders to use for the bed. I guess you have to have vision to see what this truck could be. I knew what I wanted to do as soon as I saw it. But I have other projects that i would like to finish, so this one has to go. I’ve spent some time and money coming up with all the stuff to do this truck the way I wanted. It also has a clean title ready to go. The front window and a side window is broken. I have a replacement for the side and paperwork on where to get a new front. Also has a spare rear window. If you just want the Jeep and what you see in the pics, I will take $1500 cash and keep the rest for a future project. I might take a trade on a running car or truck. A v6 s10 or a small 2 door gas saver. But cash is king so bring your trailer and come get it. super easy to load. this is going to make a bad ass toy for someone. call 314-368-3997 between 10 am and 10 pm. I also Have some steel stock to use for the front and rear bumpers and a Freightliner grill for the front.”
