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.
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: Philip pointed out that an article about these FCs is on Barn Finds, along with new Craigslist links. These have been available for a while.

That tanker is very cool.
Bob do you think the front HD axle and steering assembly is factory or added later? I can’t tell if it is a 4WD or not. Just wondering.
Barry, the DRW is factory with 4wd. The green 170 on the lift appears to be a Forest Service truck with running boards. Most likely it has a 4 speed too.
It doesn’t seem unreasonable to expext him to clarify what does and does not have a title. He’ll have to figure it out if someone wants to buy one, so why not spend the time now?
Between that and pricing, it’s no surprise these haven’t sold. It’s still cool to see that many FCs in one place, especially ones that have seen real use.
I am pretty sure the 170 on the lift was one of the first ones to sell.
I like the green/blue 150, but even with the slim chance it has a title, I feel $4500 is about 3x realistic for a something that will need, at the very least, a complete engine and brake overhaul. Who knows how flexible he is on that $4500 obo.
Oh well, the hunt continues.
He has sold 2 hes in a Facebook group I’m in
