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 $4500.

“Up for sale is a 1957 Jeep FC 150 (serial number: 6554810262)
History:
This Jeep lived the majority of its life on a farm and ranch in the Northern California region of the United States until an older gentlemen finally convinced the rancher to sell it to him after many years of trying. Unable to devote the needed energy and time to put this tough looking creature back on the road, he handed over the keys to his nephew. The young man began a cosmetic restoration of sorts and brought the FC back to a running condition to be used in various parades and car shows.
UPDATE: This new photo on eBay seems to be a companion press photo to the one at the bottom. Both have the same release dates.

Runs and drives. Is a very early FC.
“For sale 1957 Willys Jeep Forward Control FC-150 4X4 cab over pickup truck. I bought this original Fc-150 over ten years ago with the intention of restoring it. I simply have too many projects to get around to it. It has been stored indoors every since I bought it. The Jeep will run and drive but I stopped driving it due to the poor condition of the tires and brakes. Includes spare sheet metal parts including lower cab corners, spare door, remains of the original bed and more. This is the lowest known serial number on the Forward Control Registry! This is a rare model Jeep and I had to go to New Hampshire to get this one. I will only sell it to someone that has the plans and the means to restore it. If you want to build a swamp buggy go find an old wrangler! There is some rust in the lower cab corners but nothing that cannot be fixed. Get real this truck is 58 years old and is a project! The rest of the cab including the rain gutters are in good condition. I have a Florida little for it. I hate to see it go but I will only sell it to someone who is gone actually restore it…. Not stick it in a field to rot away or butcher it up… I’d rather keep it!”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $10,000
(02/25/2015) The price seems a bit high, but it might just be a placeholder.
“I have a rare Willy’s Jeep Forward Control. It runs & drives. If interested, please give me a call. Text messages will not be responded to.”
