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 .
There may be some value here.

Either lots of parts or two projects.
“Two FC-170 Jeep Truck projects
Gray truck:
1964 – one of the last FC-170 produced – 1 ton – 4 wheel drive – 3 speed transmission – Dana 20 transfer case
Rebuilt original engine and axles, Frame has been sand blasted and painted.
Cab was sandblasted and primed years ago but will need to be done again. New floor pans and rear window panel included. Windshield, rear window and quarter glass all provided. Doors are included but door glass is missing.
Green truck:
1962 – 1 ton – 4 wheel drive – 3 speed transmission – Dana 18 transfer case
Engine is stuck, axles have been rebuilt
Cab has had some “quick” body work and paint by a previous owner. Looks good from a distance but could use some more work. All glass is in good condition. Front and rear lower cab corners are in excellent condition. Frame has been patched but seems to be strong. Has nice seats and door panels.
Together there are more than enough parts to make one good truck with lots of spare parts.
$2,500 obo\
I ran across this unusually modified FC named Work’N Woody. According to this website, it’s a modified FC that has been a fixture at race tracks since 1978. It even has its own website. You can see a gallery of pictures here. Pretty cool! It must be a great place to watch a race.
Here are a couple pictures from the website:
UPDATE: **SOLD** No price was listed.
This looks beautiful. I searched for other Willys on oldcaronline.com, but the others appear very overpriced to me.
Here are several original FC-170 brochures at a good price.
“ORIGINAL SHOWROOM FOLDOUT provides PICTURES, FEATURES, SPECS and MORE on this unusual 4-Wheel Drive JEEP. In EXCELLENT CONDITION.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.
This brochure was designed as mailer to promote the TV Show Maverick with James Garner as a joint advertising venture. This is 8.5 x 5.5 folded , 8.5 x 11 unfolded.
Here’s a cool photo of a FC-150 Tow Truck at work on a race track, though the FC doesn’t take up much of the image. I’ve made the FC portion a little bigger in the photo below.
