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 .

“1959 jeep willys fc-170 only 1387 produced and approx 80 known in existence . This truck had a complete restoration a few years ago when I purchased it from the original owners of a vineyard in napa valley, CA.
This vehicle starts and runs excellent. the four wheel drive works perfectly. The car has brand new tires and the frame is solid with zero rust.
This vehicle is an attention getter, everywhere I go people stop me with stories of how they remember it from when they were children.
I set the reserve low. I expect $500 at completion of auction. I can help arrange transportation at buyers expense.”

“1959 Jeep FC-170. Cab has some front end damage. The windshield is good, no cracks or chips. The door glass and side windows are intact. The back glass is cracked. All of the glass except the windshield is flat and can be cut by a glass company fairly cheap. Has the original flat head 6 cylinder with a T90 three speed transmission and a Dana 18 transfer case. The flat bed is steel and very well made. Also had a 4″ lift installed several years ago. Have not tried to start the engine. Was a true barn find. Will need the steering fixed as it seems the pitman arm splines are stripped. Everything will need to be gone through: brakes, wiring, steering…etc. Have a good Missouri title in my name.
1960 Jeep FC-150. Cab has rust above the windshield and floor pans. No glass. Does not run. Has the 4 cylinder engine ,T90, & Dana 18. Have the bed also. The title was signed by a previous buyer but never registered in their name.”
UPDATE: Was $4200. **SOLD** Spotted by yours truly as it was being towed west from Denver on I-70.
“This is truck #383 of the estimated 400 diesel-powered, Forward Control Jeep crew cabs built for the Marine Corp in 1964. The majority of these rare trucks have not survived, and this one barely has. It appears to have been wrecked early in its life and was subsequently stripped of its drivetrain and military dash. The collectibility of these trucks makes this one worth restoring, though it will entail quite a bit of work. These rare four-door cabs were constructed largely of parts available from standard civilian production.
Enough remains of the rare military body, that it can be rebuild from pieces. A good civilian cab, dash, and doors is included with this sale to help with that reconstruction. The floors of both cabs are remarkably solid. There is some rust in the doors that is repairable. The frame still sits on its original Dana axles, which specification sheets identify with 4.89 gears and Power Lock differentials front and rear. The engine, transmission, and transfer case is gone. The military dog house is still there. It is missing the cover for the battery box and air cleaner, which originally set inside the cab. It has the original military grill guard and bumpers with air-lift loops. It is missing all of the military blackout lights.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000
(05/13/2015) Runs and drives.
“1963 jeep fc170. (Forward control)
4 speed manual
2 speed transfer case
Pto winch
The Jeep is in great shape and was clearly never abused. Every part and piece is still there and in good working order. Runs and drives. This is an excellent project truck since it has never been disassembled or changed since 1963. This also is the last year of the FC Jeep and has the longer bed. Call,text or email is good with me. $5000 OBO. ”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $800
“its a project, everything is there flat head 4 or 6 not sure. some rust on body mainly on the bottom corner of the doors. the dash isnt attach but is there, all glass. its seems to be all there. flat bed with someI side rails.”

“1957 Willys FC150. Nice original body, not a lot of rust, was stored inside for years. Missing the transmission, transfer case, radiator and undoubtedly some small parts but is basically complete and sound. Box floor is good, glass is good enough to use, etc. I bought this out of an auction in Livingston last summer and was going to try to restore it but I recently bought an FC170 that is pretty nice so I’m going to do that one. I also have 3 Willys pickups and a CJ3A. Enough Willys projects for now.
This is $3250 as it sets. It can stay in my storage for free until July 1st, then it either has to go away or you start paying storage of $25 a month, which is what they charge me.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer.
Neither runs nor is complete.
“Only have title to the fc it’s 4×4 manual ruff but nearly complete head is off the motor built on the m-38 frame or cj3a not exactly sure idk anything about it I traded for this

(04/18/2015) Lots to do on this FC.
“I bought this to restore into a fun little run around truck. I haven’t had the time to do much to it. When I got it I was told it still ran but I never tried to get it running, was planning on a v6 swap. Everything is still there stock motor and tranny t-case and axles, i have all the glass for it as well as headlights and some of the interior. It is a real project but could be awesome!!!”

“Selling a 1960 cab over. Starts and drives. Has Super Hurricane six cylinder. These are super rare and this one is in pretty decent shape. The tires have about 100 miles on them, but are weather cracking, not enough to stop from driving. Has rust in the cab corners and floors. A great start to a unique vehicle.”
