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: **Status Unknown** Was $600.
Seller thinks that tailgate will fit on a FC-170, but it would require some bending I think.
“Selling a pair of bed fenders and tailgate off a 1959 Jeep Fc 170. Should fit all years of FC-170’s and Fc-150’s. May fit Willys Pickup also. Fenders and tail gate are in great condition, no rust, fresh paint. You wont find any better then this! Cash only NO TRADES!!!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $8500
(04/12/2014) Runs and drives.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
It runs, but needs work.
“This is an original fire dept truck,ole no.5, it shows 22k miles,i think they are right but you be the judge,it does need restored. If I prime it it will run,I think it needs a fuel pump,carb rebuilt,it does not smoke ,the brakes are down, the hydraulic pump on blade does work,This is original paint so it is not like you are going to run into anything hidden,it does have some rust spot,cab corner outside are good but are rusted inside,the inside bed has surface rust,but no holes,The windshield is broke but does have a good one to go in,tires are good,doors fit real nice and tight,The front drive shaft is out and I know nothing about the 4 wheel drive,the seats need redone,,I took the original off,springs are good,the tail gate works fine and not all dented up,Now just think about it wouldn’t this be a neat truck for a plow company advertisement,,It is for sale locally,,”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
(05/05/2014) Looks a bit low in the back.
“fc150 narrow track needs windshield and brake work mostly complete low rust bill of sale only”
George spotted this video. It shows that FC-170 from SEMA racing down the road on its tracks. Nice interior shots of it.
UPDATE: This is back on eBay.
This is a couple hours from me.
“I found this sitting in a field here locally in Enterprise very good shape for sitting outside for so long but is by no means a perfect 10 . This would be a good base for a restoration project or just a good all purpose work vehicle around the farm or ranch or whatever. I have got the unit sitting at a local shop where it is currently awaiting some repairs, work done so far rebuilt carb, fuel filter, oil change, new spark plugs, distributor repair, is awaiting front brake repair for they are alittle sticky. I have driven this but it will be a lot better when the brakes get repaired. It had some bad fuel in it and while most of it was drained it does run alittle rough but I feel as more good gasoline is added it will smooth out . It currently does not shift into third but am working to trace this problem out but it may not all get done by the time this auction is over. This jeep does put a smile on your face to drive just because its a great ol’ classic and you just do not see many of these that much anymore. I do have the title for it and it is clean.”

“Good luck trying to find another one like this. Even a project! RARE RARE RARE. This is the 170 model that has the larger 6 cylinder motor in it. Unlike the FC150, this will do 50 MPH and is a blast to drive.”
