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 .

(04/24/2020) Seller listed this as a “pre-1954 Kaiser Willys”, but I’d say it’s more likely a mid-to-late 1960s CJ-6.

Daniel shared this nice looking FC.
“This is a very nice 1965 jeep FC 170. It has had some minor rust repair and although it is not a professional paint job, looks good and is a great driver. The odometer reads 49,400 miles which I believe to be correct. It has its original six cylinder engine with the original transmission and transfer case. Mechanically, it is in good condition and starts, stops, and drives as it should.
Like the April issue, this issue includes a variety FC and Surrey images.
The March 1956 Issue of Popular Science included a small story of a CJ-2A with a Gutter-Vac installed. It was used in Washington, D.C.
UPDATE: Thanks to Mark we have some background information on the Turner Manufacturing Company: https://www.statesville.com/opinion/o-c-stonestreet-a-closer-look-at-mr-c-h-turner-and-turner-manufacturing-company/article_d376cc29-de76-591c-bcad-62e719909ca6.html.
I’ve also added to the post with some wood working equipment that was also offered by the Turner Manufacturing Company of Statesville, North Carolina.
The Turner company offered a variety of other wood options as well according to the Special Equipment brochure index:
As the original post indicated, Turner produced hay balers as well.
This turner hay baler has some similar elements, but isn’t example the same:
This is really cool … expensive, but cool. Thanks to Steve for sharing it with us.

“This listing is for one Vintage EL JEBEL JEEP PATROL Denver Colorado License Plate Topper Attachment. It is in very good condition with original paint.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $900.
Terry pointed out that the larger parking lights suggest this is more like a 1969. Per Colin, the “V4” engine is probably just a typo, as the V and F are near each other.
Here’s a really rare DJ-6 project at a good price.
“This is a very rare 2wd Jeep that has the original Hurricane V4 Engine. The starter is missing and it needs some wiring work done but the engine is not locked and should run. I was planning on slamming it to make it a one of a kind! Title has been lost but would not be hard to get one”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $8,000. Last listed in 2018.

(03/30/2020) It appears to have a VEC body. I think that is an early Koenig top.

Matt’s selling these M-38 parts. You can email him directly at mpstratton66 @ gmail.com (no spaces around the @).
Here’s the body. As you can see, it’s missing the steps.

“I have multiple M38 Jeep parts for sale. I have a frame and running gear that has the following: Ford 302/C4 Trans with military transfercase with Hi/Lo. I believe its a Dana 44 in the rear and a Dana 30 in the front. (I don’t know the Dana series at all.) I also have an original M38 tub in beautiful shape. The frame to match, windshield, gas tank, 2 tailgates , grille with war headlights, and various other parts I will try and post them all but FB only allows ten photos at a time… I would like to sell it all together and would put it on a trailer and deliver for a small fuel fee.”
After Willys Motors found it’s groove in 1956, the marketing department continued its Saturday Evening Post ad-a-month pace throughout 1957. The company used the same triple-pane style of ads as it had in 1956, the exception being a two-page, color, introductory ad for the FC-170. Marketing also reused some content from the previous year, but combined that older content with information about the FCs.
For example, the first triple-pane ad, in February of 1957, was very similar to the the June 1956 ad, except that it included an FC-150.
Comparison of similar “Gets there … works there … anywhere!” ads from June 16, 1956, and February 23, 1957.
Here are the next four ads for 1957 in the Post:
These ads appeared in the Saturday Evening Post March 30, April 27, May 25, and June 22 of 1957. The April 27, 1957, ad is mostly a repeat of the November 17, 1956, ad. The June 22, 1957, ad is mostly a repeat of the September 26, 1956, ad.
In July, Willys Motors, as they did for the FC-150 in December of 1956, ran a full-color two-page ad for the new FC-170:
This two page ad introducing the FC-170 appeared in the July 13, 1957, issue of the Saturday Evening Post.
The remaining four ads for 1957 are shown below:
These ads appeared in the Saturday Evening Post on August 17, September 21, October 19, and November 11 of 1957. There was no ad published in December of 1957.
After Willys Motors near-montly ads in 1957, I expected to find similar advertising the following year. Instead, I could not locate any ads in the Saturday Evening Post over the course of 1958.
No month or journal name for this ad.
