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 .
It sounds like it has some usual rust, but doesn’t look too bad.
“Hurricane 6 standard trans..was running 8 years ago lost ambition to restore..has some rust windsheild and side glass on pass side is cracked..text or call and leave a message 719-371-1980 make me a offer”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2000.
It goes better than it stops.
“runs drives but has no brakes. three speed transmission, 4wd with lockouts, and pto that comes out the front with a hand clutch. had a plow on it but was gone when i got it.pump is still there. has a rebuilt starter. back window has a crack. any other questions”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown**
(04/09/2011) It appears solid.
“This FORWARD CONTROL is all original, no rust, no body damage. Flathead, 6 cyl.. Great Restoration project like FC 150 MAKE OFFER ”
This is a project.
“Here is your next project.
1957 Jeep FC150. This will need a TOTAL restoration and will need to be towed.
It has the 134 Hurricane 4 cylinder and is 4 wheel drive. I was told the engine ran and it looks to be complete (and not stuck).
Needs extensive body work, Drivers side rear lug nuts have all broken off, so will need new studs to roll. (have a fork lift available to help load onto your trailer)
The frame and drive train all look like they are in good shape. I do have some extra parts that go with it like a spare dash and instrument cluster, spare heater, brake controls with master cylinder, clutch pedal assembly, a few glass pieces.
This project is not for the faint of heart, but when done, it will be a head turner! I get comments on it sitting in my shop all the time!
I need the space in my shop. I am putting it on here for a few days and if it does not sell within this time frame, I am going to pull the ad and move it back to my house and slowly work on it when I have the time. I have too many projects that take priority over this one so I would really like to see this go to someone who is going to be able to put the work into it rather than let it sit.
I do not NEED to sell it, so fairly firm on the price with only a little room to negotiate. (no offers for half of asking price).
I would be willing to consider a trade for an inverter type TIG welder with high frequency start that can weld aluminum or a large media blasting pot with deadman controls. Might consider a trade for guns.
It has the keys and a clear title.
$1000 or best REASONABLE offer. As I said, if it does not sell, I will put it in my garage at the house and let it sit until I can get the time to work on it. I am taking a loss at my asking price.
There are not many of these around anymore. Now is your chance to own a piece of Jeep history!
Email with any questions or to set up a time to take a look at it.”

UPDATE: Still Available
(04/11/2011) This looks in good shape, though it does need some work.

This is a running, driving project and needs electrical work (lights, horn, gauge) and minor mechanical work (parking brake, tune up). Runs, drives, and goes fine down the road (top speed about 40 mph). Email call or text Michelle 207-321-1148 or Eric 207-650-7900. If this ad is still up, the vehicle is still available; I will delete the ad as soon as it is sold. Thanks for your interest!”
