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 .
No pics provided. I”m not sure if this is an FC or something custom on an FC frame.

“Rare Jeep / Willys FC-150 and FC-170 for sale.
Price depends on which project u want.

These jeeps are becoming increasingly popular amongst car guys. There have been a couple at SEMA the past couple years.
They are getting harder to find every day!!”
John picked up these 5 FCs the other day out of Canandaigua, New York. You might remember these for sale last month.
UPDATE:**SOLD**
I’m wondering if this was used on a Christmas tree farm. There are little trees cut out of the wooden sides.
“For sale, 1957 Willy F C 150, needs some TLC. Has title, 4 cyclinder manuel shift. Would like to trade for jeep with plow plus some cash.”
Drew forwarded an ad for a good looking FC-170 over at Bring-a-trailer’s website. If you want to bid on it you will need to scroll to the bottom of the ad’s page and register with bring-a-trailer.

“This is a clean project truck that my dad has had for about 6 years. Clean Title and Current CA registration. He sourced it from J&W Jeep in Antelope CA and they in turn hunted it down in the high Northern deserts of Nevada. This truck is in amazing shape for its history and age. Was used for years at a small airstrip for fuel delivery. We have had it running and driving. A good once over on the fluids, charge the battery and she should come to life again. My dead owns 2 of these and realized that he doesn’t need 2. Brakes need some attention. Will assist with shipping and international buyers.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $17,000.
“1959 WILLYS JEEP 1387 PRODUCED , Approximately 87 left in existence.

View all the information on eBay
MotoeXotica Classic Cars is pleased to offer a very rarely seen, very unique 1963 Jeep FC150 Cab Over Engine. FC150 stands for “Forward Control,” which is often referred to as a “cab-over” and the model used a slightly wider chassis and wheelbase of the CJ-5. This particular example is equipped with an upgraded V6 engine, 4×4 and was totally restored in the recent past and looks absolutely wonderful! This Jeep almost looks quirky and is sure to demand attention anywhere it may go!
The body of this neat, little truck is in great shape while being very sound. The truck has a large stake-bed, complete with a “wood” floor that looks great. The body is painted with a bright red paint that looks awesome. The paint shows very well, showing only minor imperfections. There is a little bit of chrome on the truck and it all shines brilliantly! Overall, this is an awesome truck capable of driving on the streets or tearing up some logging trail or power line backwoods!
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
Ran last summer.
“Truck needs restoration, pictures show the details. Needs body work. Ran last summer, but have not tried to start it since. Mileage unknown”

I recently had the starter motor rebuilt
The engine runs smooth with no smoke (I was told by the former owner that the engine has been recently rebuilt).
The Gas Tank is there and appears to be restorable

All the glass is there, Windshield is in good (not great) condition
A plow ( not in working condition is included in the sale)
The engine cover is there and in good shape

Runs and drives well. Good windshield. 3 speed trans works well. Transfercase works properly. Has Dana 44 axles in both ends from the factory. Factory installed 11 inch brakes. Engine is a 153 Chevy 4 cylinder. Runs good with no issues. Is super fun to drive and will attract attention wherever it goes. Clean Colorado title. “

This ex-American Legion FC sports a rear PTO. It does need some work.
“Here’s a very hard to find FC-150. Used as a parade vehicle by the American Legion years ago. It was towed from event to event and the tow bar comes with it for easy pick up. Very cool looking paint job. Hurricane 4 cylinder engine. Comes with white spoke wheels and original rims with tires. PTO in rear! The photos show the condition of the FC-150. Having owned a couple of these it’s hard to find one with such a clean undercarriage. It’s been off the road for several years so it will need some work to be driver.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $14,949.

Rebuilt engine and drive train.
Fresh Red and White Paint interior and exterior.

“This is what I believe to be a 1958 Forward Control Jeep 150 4×4. I am not sure of the exact year. These are super rare antique forward control jeeps. This vehicle is complete, but in poor condition. The engine (hurricane 4 cylinder) turns over and the transmission shifts through the gears. I have not tried to start it. I am selling this vehicle for parts or restoration. The pictures describe it better than my words can.
I am asking $899 or best offer. If you are interested, please email me and we can setup an appointment to view it. The jeep is located in Glens Falls and we can help to transport for a nominal fee.”
