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 .

“Barn find – Vehicle comes with several areas of rust and has not run in several years by all appearances. The bones are there, but it does require a lot of work to get to daily driving again.
This is a project vehicle. It is currently in non running condition and in my opinion will require an upgraded drive train (possibly inline 6 from a newer Jeep) as the current setup does not seem to be in running condition. No transfer box present. Would make an excellent finished project, but will require work.
Vehicle comes with bill of sale, but not title present. Bonded title would be the best option.”
It’s a project.

“I bought this just over 5 years ago in west Texas. It’s been garaged the entire 5 years it’s been in Michigan. According to the previous owner, it spent most of its life in New Mexico. The body has very little rust, quite a few dents and dings, and the frame is in great shape. It seems to be mostly complete. Comes with a replacement used windshield, back window, and side windows. I’ve never tried to get it running, so consider it needing a complete going through. It has the 3-speed transmission and Selectro hubs. Some tires hold air, some don’t for long. It rolls and the engine rotates. The Jayhawk dump apparatus in the bed is not included, however it is listed separately, see my other posting. The transfer case is also not included. I have a clear Michigan title in my name. VIN# 61568 21173”
Not sure how much value is here.

“This 1958 Jeep FC170 was completely hand-built by the Daystar team in Phoenix, AZ. Hundreds of hours went into the building of this Jeep, and it was featured at the 2015 SEMA show. The combination of the all-terrain wheels and tires, and separate Mattracks 88 Series tracks, the vehicle can tackle any terrain on tires or treads. The custom body of the FC170 is protected by a beautiful 3-stage custom Metallic Viper Green paint accented with a pearlescent cream. The Daystar team did an outstanding job on the quality of finish, raw power and off-road prowess. It’s powered by a 5.7-liter 8-cylinder engine backed by an automatic transmission. This Jeep is still in great condition to this day. Both wheels and tires, and Mattracks tracks are included in the sale.”

“Ultra Rare 1960 Willys Jeep FC150 foward control – the shorter one – clear signed notarized Arizona title. From Arizona, was acquired from an estate last on road in 1992. Original drivetrain is complete. Front windshield is cracked in lower passenger side area about 6″ long,,drivers and passenger roll up windows are cracked, the Jeep had a son roof in it and that glass is missing which is why the floor boards and cab corners are rusty, water and leaves got in and sat inside for a long time. Otherwise very complete original vehicle, will need restoration or customization.
Has been in AZ its entire life, see photos for condition, will need metal work on both floor pans, cab corners, and probably to fill in that sun roof opening. Way back in the day it had black shag carpet glued on the dash, doors, and basically all over the inside of the cab, the glue had long since dried out and it all peeled off in pieces, thats why the interior metal looks like it does, mix of dried out glue and black carpet backing. This would all save off easily by hand no sweat. Has decent roller tires and steel wheels, rolls and turns easily. It is what it is, good builder rare Jeep to either restore or turn into a full custom on a modern Jeep chassis or with upgraded drivetrain. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4800.
Some assembly required.
“old willy’s jeep, forward control cap over, 4 wheel drive, 4 cylinder, previous owner tore apart of the engine. Extra parts. Body is in good shape for its age.”
