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: **SOLD** Was $3500.
I don’t see any obvious rust on this.
“1957 willeys jeep Fc 170. Needs some work. I do not have time to restore this truck. Parts on this are all orginal.”
UPDATE2: Still Available
UPDATE: Craig confirms that this is a FC-170 DRW; it’s unclear if the diesel is original or if it is a replacement engine (rather than a M-676 with a Cerlist Diesel.)
“I have an FC 150 and an FC 170 that will be sold as a pair. The FC 170 has no motor, trans or transfer case. It was a RARE factory diesel with a Gafner loader. It has a GVW of 9000# with Dana axles. Found a bell housing and flywheel in the cab so I assume it is off the diesel. Odometer shows 7500 miles. The FC 150 is pretty much complete except for the seats. It has a 4 cylinder F134 motor that will be rebuilt shortly. It has the standard bore and reground crank and bearings to match. Waitng for a front seal and valve stem seals. Odometer shows 21,500 miles. I am just stating what the odometers say, don’t know if it is the actual miles or not. Both Jeeps last plated around 1973-74. I am open to REASONABLE OFFERS. I am not going to give these away so don’t waste my time. I do have more pics if you are serious.”

“Very rare (less than 400 believed to ever have been produced, and only a handful raimaining). Kaiser built these for the military based on the Forward Control Willys platform and powered by a Cerlist diesel engine. The engine, transmission, and transfercase are missing from this rare survivor. Survivor may be a strong word considering how beat up this example is. Nearly very door and body panel is beat up in some fashion. The irony is that this is a relativley rust-free example of a Forward Control Jeep. The floors and structural body componenets are solid and strong.
This truck comes with a solid and straight civilian cab and doors that can be used to rebuild this ultra-rare crewcab body. It has the military bumpers and grill guard. The military garages are gone. I have a civilian dash to go with it. It is missing the rear seat, and has no glass.
UPDATE: Was on eBay. **SOLD**
“I bought this truck because of the rare 4-speed T98 transmission, and intended to use it as parts for my M677 Crew Cab (listed separately). I decided to go ahead and list this FC170 separately, but I would also work with anyone interested in both trucks.
This truck starts and runs great. The brakes are currently down from sitting. I bought it a year ago. The preivous owner told me he drove it regularly over the last15 yeas around his farm in Arkansas.
The four speed transmission and shifting mechanis is complete, as is the Ramsey PTO-driven winch. The seats have been recovered with gray vinyl. There is some rust in the forward floors and around the inside of the windshield header. It looks like rust from mouse nests on the interior side. The exterior does not show rust through. It has relatively new Delta Super Deep Lug tires, size 7.50 x 16. I don’t have a title for this Jeep. The previous owner was supposed to mail it to me. I’ve heard from him since then, saying he would send it once the DMV processed some paper work, but it has not yet arrived in my mailbox.”
