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 .
The FC-150 looks pretty good as well for $1500, if it comes with some of the missing parts.
“One 1959 Willys CJ5 with Ford 289 and Ford top loader four speed, Warn overdrive, starts and runs good, original 5:38 gears and nine inch brakes, 
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1000
There’s only one pic, but I don’t see any major rust. This might be a good deal.
“1960 Willys FC170 – Rare Project Truck – Runs but needs throttle cable. Only reason I am selling is to repair transmission on other truck.”
“This is a 1957 jeep fc 150. its all original but has some things missing and a little rust. things missing that i noticed are the distributar and speedometer. the passenger door is damage but could be fixed by a body guy, some rust but will be surface only and could all be taken off when sandblasted, nothing that bad, i would suggest removing the bed and cab to go through it, these trucks are very easy to pull apart. its got the original engine and was running about ten years ago. most of the parts are willy’s jeep and can be bought still through local dealers. the seats are there and there’s a few extra heads in the bed. i noticed a bunch of spare parts in the bed, i will get an inventory soon. call me if your interested, ill try to answer any questions, erik, 916-218-9187, $ is negotiable and i will deliver it!!…”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500
(10/01/09) It’s a bit rough.
“
1957 Willys Jeep forward control. has Ford v-8 runs needs plugs wires, rotor. body is rust free and fairly straight. $2500.00.”
“1960’s era Jeep FC-150 (Forward Control) restoration project or parts vehicle. 4cyl OHV, manual trans, hydraulic dump, aux hydraulics, plow mount, single wheel rear axle, many parts interchange with FC 170’s. I can transport vehicle within a 50 mile radius for a small fee. I also have a 1983 Jeep CJ-7 with a small block Chevy 350, 4spd manual trans, hardtop, plow mount, in “need” of restoration or good parts vehicle. Both vehicles ran and are complete, though in “need” of restoration.
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500
There’s dents and some rust. Interestingly, despite the increase in flatties, Forward Controls continue to be difficult to find.
“I have a 1957 FC-150 Willys Jeep. New tires with spacers, new carburator,bed has been resently sand blasted and powder coated. Vehicle runs is driveable but need some work. New fuel pum, shocks, brakes comes with some extra parts.Price not set in stone, pictures available. Engine cover in bed of truck to show original engine.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay. It’s got a low starting bid. Check out the video, but be patient as it took a while to load.
“1960 WILLY’S JEEP F150 FORWARD CONTROL 4WD. Perfect for restoration this jeep was in use until 1996. Odometer reads 24,766. When I acquired this truck a few months ago it ran great for a few days, would start right up, plenty of power and very little smoke. Then it died and before I realized the fuel pump diaphragm went I messed around with the carb. Here is a link to a 11 mg video of the Jeep in great running condition that you can download with my 12 year old son running it through our back field.”
My guess is that this is a modified FC 150? No doubt it’s rare! Maybe It’s the perfect vehicle for that FC collector who has it all. It sounds as if it runs, but the owner doesn’t have a key?
“Unique vehicle. May be custom built. was told that the running gear was from a 1953 Willys. The seats are from a Volkswagen. The front windshield is movable. Has tow bar attached to the front. 6 volt battery system. Has a swivel arm on the back. 2 front seats. 4 wheel drive. Purchased it with my property and don’t know if it runs. Has never been registered. don’t have a key. The original owner was a hunter and did use this vehicle. Price $ 2495.00 or best offer.”
It looks like there’s some typical rust around the bottom of the door. Otherwise, looks good.
“1961 FORWARD CAB, 6CLY, 3SPD, 4X4. RUNS AND DRIVES GREAT! EXCELLENT WORKHORSE! SET UP FOR 9FT FLAT BED/ STAKE BED/ OR UTILITY BOX. NEEDS PAINT & GLASS. CALL DAVE @ 720-297-7028”
UPDATE:**SOLD** Was $2000.
“This is one of jeep’s stranger creatures to be sure. it has 4 wheel drive with lockouts, a p.t.o. to power a cylinder which lifts the flatbed, very heavy leaf springs and 5.38 gearing in the diffs. drivetrain is a 6 cylinder flathead that runs good . tranny is a 3 speed manual this truck needs wood for the bed and various other details to be driven. truck has a good title .”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5600.
This FC appears to be in pretty good condition, just the paint is a little faded.
“1962 Willys Jeep FC 170 DRW 1 Ton Truck. Original Title. Ask about propane conversion unit.”
Looks like there’s the typical door rust. However, it’s running and there is extra parts.
“This Truck is a 1959 Willy’s Jeep (Mileage unknown )it runs Good and has lots of extras that will go with it, Extra frame, Motor, Drive-train all in Good condition as well I assume although have never had time to rebuild. everything was bought with the intention of using as extra parts and the Jeep wont die.”
