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 .
This has a dump bed. Blaine notes this is not a dually (I had mentioned I wasn’t sure).
“Early 60s jeep flat nose cab over FC 170 4WD, dump bed. Vehicle ran and moved last year, needs tune-up etc. body has some rust/rot, selling as project 1,800 OBO”
“1958 Forward Control (FC-150) Jeep. Good glass (some fogging), no engine or transmission, no bed, clean title. Some rust, but mostly sound, very restoraable for a good body man. I looked for one for years but just don’t have time for a project anymore. $600. Cash only.”
This is a custom FC with custom Ford axles and power train.
“1957 Jeep FC- 150. Foward Control Jeep with Ford Econoline front axle, 1957 Ford 9 inch rear end. 302 Ford V8 engine with C-4 automatic transmission. Dual rear wheels with new radials all around. Handbuilt flatbed with nice wood floor. New red/white paint. Bet you’ve never seen a truck like this before. You will have the only one at any car show.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1200. This was for sale earlier this year. It appears to have a new owner who is selling it.
(02/16/2012) It runs, but has rust.
“For Sale is a 1957 Willys Jeep FC150 or Forward Control 150, serial number shows that this is the 68th one made out of only around 30,000 units made bewteen 1957 and 1964.
Runs and drives, 4WD, 3 speed manual, 2 speed, single stick transfer case, 4 cylinder engine (Hurricane 4 I believe,) I believe it has around 24,xxx miles. has engine driven hydraulic pump and lines still attached. Did have snow plow attached before I bought it.
Tires are dry rotted but hold air, have tubes in them but will need to be replaced soon. The transfer case does shift into all ranges but the front hubs need to be replaced, the front driveshaft spins but the hubs don’t engage. I bought it this way
and never had the time to replace them. Needs driver side window replaced, all the guts are there and you can get a window cut at any auto glass store in town. Needs a lot of body work, paint, weatherstripping, etc. Basically needs to be restored.
The headlights, tail lights and beacon on top all work but wiring was cobbled together by previous owner. Could use a new battery as well, and a choke cable. Hard starting in the winter, carb needs rebuilt but will throw in a rebuild kit that I bought. I will include the front bumper that is in the back and the big gas can as well. This is a rare truck and a good project,
however is not roadworthy so you will need to bring a trailer. Selling due to relocation out of state. Has a title and will throw in a service manual as well. Asking $1200 obo”
“124 CI F head huricane engine 3 speed trans geer driven transfer case dana 44 5.38 to 1 differentials runs good all original. A few modifications for driving in the river but all original parts still bolted in place. 4 owner 40,000 miles. Serious only I need money no trades.”
(10/26/2012) This needs a transfer case and has an auto tranny.
“1959 Willys FC 170 pick up truck. One of 2,474 manufactured. 7000 lbs gross weight. Buick V6 engine. Automatic transmission. Needs transfer case. All parts are available. $4,500.”
Check out the interesting tarp setup. Looks pretty clever.
“Great view of what I think is a 1957 Jeep Forward Control pick-up in front of the Red River Jeep Trips Trailway Depot in Taos County New Mexico. “For reservations contact Jack Chambless Enterprises.” Standard size vintage postcard. Not postally used; no message written on the back. Nice crisp postcard with minor edge/corner wear.”
