About eWillys
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.
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 .
1962 Willys Jeep FC-170 DRW $15,000 Broadlands, IL ***SOLD***
***SOLD***
You are not building this for the price, I looked to see if we posted this prior or any other posting to get some background outside of this post. Just because it looks really nice and these are not always what we think they are. But overall it’s a nice build, buy and drive and be done with that endless project your never going to finish…. But I have many of those projects along with drivers so you can always have both. Just nicer to have a driver! I would pick this up if local. There are things it needs refreshed and worked on, and hard to say in the photos on the paint, but it’s worth a look if you are in the market.
Information from seller:
I have owned this truck since 2006. It started it’s life as a fire truck in Ohio. That is why the low miles. The body is in great shape, all rust is repaired. Here are the specs: Engine = 226 I6 L head Transmission = T 98A 4speed Transfer Case = Spicer 18 Front axle = Spicer 44F Rear axle = Spicer 70 The biggest problem with the truck is the linkage from the cab back to the transmission. I have fixed several things on the truck, but there will always be several more. The bed and hoist work great. I have been hauling 425 gals on it. Handles it great! Bed dimensions are 7 wide by 9 long. These trucks always have things that need repair. But this is one of the most complete FC170DRW’s you will find.
1961 Jeep Willy’s FC 170 cab over Original straight 6 cylinder engine, original 3 speed manual transmission (a Borg-Warner T90), with four wheel drive, and a power take-off underneath the bed. PTO functioned before parking it.
Looks legit on the inside very original patina. Some times these exterior pain jobs help preserve the rig. But runs, drive, they have put a few things in to this one.
Information from seller:
Very good original condition , runs and drives very good. Has new water pump and brake lines. $9500.00
FC-170, some extra stuff here might be a nice project.

David Eilers Collection – Four Vintage Jeeps for Sale, Prosser, WA
Dave sent over his collection of Jeeps for posting, “used to run eWillys” is a huge understatement here. But we all fully appreciate Dave’s time and dedication put into the eWillys and the Jeep World to provide this great platform and body of work saving and archiving a huge collection of Willys History. Wishing Dave the best as he navigates his health issue. Keeping you in our thoughts, and if you need anything please keep us in mind. Here is the info Dave sent over – Thanks Tim
My name is David Eilers. I used to run eWillys.com. I am selling my four vintage jeeps due to an unexpected health issue. I don’t NEED to sell them, but prudence dictates I do. Email me at d@deilers.com or contact me at 831-325-9616 for questions.
#1 PNW4WDA Race Jeep $7000
This lacks a title and is not road legal. It runs and drives. I rebuilt it two years ago and raced it a couple times in 2024. It is fun, fun, fun to drive! It has a built Chev 350 with plenty of power. The body is a very rare fiberglass Parkette racing shell. The frame is widened five inches. The front springs have been reversed, while the back springs include a sway bar. It starts right up, runs and stops. The only issue is that it can overheat. I *think* the issue is that the brakes need to be adjusted as it may be fighting them. It includes additional desert dogs and other tires, along with some rims. There are extra seat belts and other parts. An unexpected health issue forces sale.
#2 1949 CJ-3A Parts Jeep built on a 1973 CJ-5 frame. $2000 The fullcage is built for the body and attaches in six spots to the frame. This jeep does not run, but does have a title. It will need to be trailered. This is a custom build with outboarded springs in the rear and reversed springs in the front. It has a rebuilt V-6, but that was rebuilt ten years ago. It has not been started. It has a T-98 transmission and a Dana 20 transfer case box with Dana 18 gears. It has a Dana 44 locker in the rear and an open Dana 30 in the front. The body is a modified fiberglass Bobcat body with a custom fiberglass hood and fenders (both lengthened about 6 inches). This includes a never-mounted tan Kayline top. There’s a lot of value there. (Other pics prior to disassembly https://www.ewillys.com/2012/08/06/just-a-few-updates-today-monday/)
==========================
1956 DJ-3A Convertible $4500 This early convertible two-wheel-drive DJ-3A is pretty near stock with a very solid body and front clip. The convertible DJ-3A model has the solid back, 2/3 1/3 front seat, column shift, and a few other unique features. This does not have the original convertible top (there are only two or three left in the US). It was originally purchased out of Patterson, California, by an Apricot farmer. He added a couple features including a very rare vacuum tank under the driver’s side to support the dual vacuum windshield wipers. This also has the original early King-Seeley 0-10 speedometer seen in early CJ-5s and CJ-6s. This runs and drives, but could use some alignment work. The brakes will stop, but they could use some work. The original paint (Presidential red?) was covered over by the original owner to a warmer red/orange. I took this up to Alaska as part of the Alaska Or Rust vintage jeep event in 2017, which is why it has signatures on it (I got folks to sign it along the way and we added stickers). I had no plans to sell this, but an unexpected health issue forces sale. $4500 You can see it running here: Today I discovered a leak in the electric fuel pump, so I will have to fix that.
#4 1962 FC-170 Tour Jeep.
The cab of this jeep is from an original FC-Tour jeep. This cab is extremely rare, one of five or six. This is a project. These FCs were originally built in Colorado for the San Juan Scenic Jeep Tour Company.
You can see two restored FC tour jeeps here: https://thefcconnection.com/vacations_with_the_tour_jeep.htm. My FC Tour Jeep sits on a 2000 Ford Explorer Chassis. When I bought it, it ran, but barely stopped. I was told it was ready to be driven on roads. However, once I spent time with it, I discovered that there were numerous defects that made it unroadworthy and unsafe. So, I was forced to rebuild the cab area. I rewired it, installed hi-range-low-range capability, redid the steering and master brake up, and much more. It was not a project I was looking to undertake, but I made good progress until I ran into health issues. You can see all the pics here: https://www.ewillys.com/tag/fc-tour-jeep-build/?orderby=date&order=ASC $15,000.
I bought this with a three-axle trailer and am willing to sell it an additional $5000.
This pic shows (top) how I was going to rebuild the bed using the existing roll bars, (middle) how it looked when I bought it and (bottom) what I believe to be the original passenger setup.
Pretty solid fc170, original straight 6, the front windshield is in great shape no cracks or anything, cab is pretty solid with some minor rust. There is no bed, it had a fuel tank instead, came off an airfield in New Jersey. Has the pto for the back of the transfercase, I have acouple extra boxes of parts for it, doesn’t have a title, OBO
M677 this does retain the Cerlist Diesel. It’s a project for sure as posted. Those are some decent Rocks, you will need to bring your own bucket. I will say I get sucked into buying a bucket more times then not at the big box stores out here in NJ we banned bags and the buckets are pretty convenient to use as bags and trash as you complete your projects. I had a broken bag of concrete in a bucket that I left out and that was out there for a few years, I finally did get rid of it and ir was solid of course, so that’s another way to waste a bucket.
Back to the M677, there are quite a few out there that are major projects so as it says do some research before jumping in. Look at the overall end game and where you want to be with the project and maybe a napkin map of how to roughly get there.
The Cerlist is not common, but then again here is yet another one sitting right here so they are out there..
Information from seller:
Very rare military Jeep Forward Control, contract-built for the U.S. Marine Corps. The M677 is the 4-door crew cab version of the FC-170, with only a few hundred ever made. This one is complete and retains its original Cerlist 3-cyl diesel. Project vehicle in rough shape, will need a full restoration. Rust in typical FC areas. Dash and controls are present. All doors and glass intact. Still partial to the project but looking to see if there is anyone willing to show it the love it needs sooner than me. Roughly 500 manufactured and estimated maybe less than 50 exist today. Do your research before you message me or make an offer. Open to trades. If you don’t like it, I have that bucket of rocks pictured you can come kick. Bucket is not included though.
All looks very complete. Is that a 3rd Light in the center of a M677? Looks like it, they all seem to have that feature, some have been converted to a normal fog light in pics. The housing kinda matches the other black out lights.
Lots of leverage in that last picture! But always great to see these at work. This one looks like fun.
Information from seller:
1958 Fc-170 with the original 226 super hurricane inline 6. Truck runs,drives and stops well. I daily drove it last summer as well did a house flip where the truck was the main hauler for materials and small equipment. It’s a good candidate for mild to heavy restoration. New tires frame is perfect. The bed does raise but has no hydro. It does have a oem heater that works.
It has been on eWillys back in 2023 and 2024, he got it in a multi rig deal and wants to move this one on.
Looking over our past M677 offerings, I know they are not common rigs, but there are quite a few out there so parts should be available to get this one going from the other FC options out there. Obviously going back to say a Cerlist Diesel is most likely out of the question, if that is what this was. Lots of Willys options out there to keep this a Willys powered rig.
Please check this one out if you are in the market.
Information from seller:
It was previously listed on your website and I recently came into possession of it as part of a two truck deal, but simply do not need it. It is serial number 10381. It doesn’t have an engine or transmission. Being sold with Bill of Sale, no title. I checked with the previous two owners and neither one had a title. Vehicle is located in Lancaster, SC. I do have a topper for it but it is currently 1.5 hours away. The price is $7500.
