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 $300.
Looks to have value.

The jeep is titled and I have all three data plates. Please contact for more photos.”
I’ve seen this photo before, but never an original press photo.

That’s a pretty FC.
“Finished in the optional President Red and Plantation White combination this all steel body pickup shows very well. The side mounted spare tire matches the other four wheels and tires. The front fender extensions and rear fenders are solid and look great. All the trim is present, complete, and displays normal wear for a vehicle of this age. The black front bumper is fits well with a finish as expected considering the age. The custom rear step bumper is sturdy and is functional. The metal bed and wheel wells is completely covered with a black protective paint.
Inside, the grey and black vinyl seat that looks period and is very good condition. The black door panels and grey dashboard are a subtle continuation of the two-tone theme of the interior. The optional heater and original gauges are correctly placed have a nice appearance and function as designed. The original equipped two spoke custom steering wheel is in good condition and functions as designed.
This 1958 FC-150 is equipped with the original 134cid Hurricane F4-134 inline 4-cylinder engine fed by a Carter one barrel carburetor. Power is transferred to the wheels by a Borg-Warner T-98 three-speed manual transmission and a Model 18 transfer case. Driver assist features include 4-wheel drum brakes. The suspension includes leaf springs with front and rear solid axles. The 15-inch original white steel wheels with Goodyear Wrangler tires complete the look.
The FC-150 advertising motto in the day was “Go Anywhere!” and all your need to do is bring this ’58 to the next “Jamboree” and turn heads! GET OUT AND DRIVE!
Current mileage on the odometer shows 11,595 miles, sold as is with a mileage exempt title.

“Hi all, I bought a CJ2A a little while back that had a factory installed bed extension on it. I thought it was some aftermarket bubbafication but after looking into it, it is a real thing and people are always looking for these. Learn something everyday I guess.
I cut it off a mine a while back, but was careful not to screw it up. It has the tailgate, spare tire carrier, toolbox, and receiver hitch all there. Check out the pictures. It’s pretty dang heavy, not gonna lie. I included original photos of one’s with this extension on it, as well as a few from my jeep, and finally, ones of how it sits now.”
Some folks really like these in jeeps.
“Offset 9″ rear end for early jeep CJ’s up to 1972. Is 28 spline open rear with 3.00 gears. Has 11″ ford brakes as well which need new shoes. You can change gears to what you want. Would be a huge upgrade from stock.”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1800.
It’s a project.
“I have for sale a 1958 Willys cj3b Jeep. Clean title in my name with original liscense plate. It is in need of work, but it is the perfect base for an off road project. The leafsprings are heavy duty, made by deaver springs. Original axles, transfercase, and transmission. It has a Chevy 283 which was running when it got parked. It needs a steering wheel, fuel tank, and radiator to move on its own power. The grill, fenders, and hood are near perfect with only minor blemishes. This is a very rare model that is in excellent original condition given its age. This is a great find for someone. ”

I purchased this off of eBay. It is a very helpful Ramsey product brochure that shows the incredible variety of winches, PTOs, reducers, and transmission produced by Ramsey in the late 1960s. I had no idea they manufactured so many. Note on the third page that the rare PTO rear gearbox 1B is shown.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay. This brochure suggests it had a ventilated windshield option.
