About eWillys
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. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
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.
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 .

Farm Jeep CJ Front Frame Weight – $250 West Salem, IN
Not sure on value here, any ideas on price? The seller has a ton of farm stuff so I feel they know the value here I’m just curious, not saying its high priced. There are a bunch of things that you narrow down on price as you buy a few and find a use for or they sit you tend to learn the pricing of certain things as you go.
INFORMATION FROM SELLER:
Very hard to find farm Jeep CJ2 and CJ3 front frame mounted weight in good condition.
Fast forward to the Spring Willys Reunion in North Canton, OH. While talking to some friends, I saw an FC-150 pull into the motel parking lot. As the driver parked, I could see a PTO on the rear! An FC-150 Farm Jeep in the wild. I quickly tracked down the owner, Seth Hensler. Seth, who goes by the name of “redeye_garage” on social media, was kind enough to give me a tour of the FC’s PTO setup.
For demonstration purposes, Seth has attached a fertilizer spreader. You can see more details in this picture.
Seth has a YouTube channel where you can see more of the FC-150, including this one that shows the PTO working at an antique machinery show –
We will soon add FC-150 information from Seth and others to the Farm Jeep site. In the meantime, please let us know if you have seen an FC-150 as a Farm Jeep at a show or in the wild. You may leave a comment here or contact me at barry@farmjeep.com
Submitted and authored by Barry of www.farmjeep.com. Thanks Barry for the story look forward to seeing if anyone else has some information on FC-150’s used as Farm Jeeps.
From what I could find these were released around Feb, 13 1948 (<<<<< edit, I had 47 here, thanks Barry for making me doible check that), here is a clipping from the Detroit paper.
Also here is a clipping from 1948 for an Ad for a 1948 Jeep with a Monroe Lift and just about everything but a kitchen sink. 8-2-1948
