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 .

“Changing focus. I’m selling my FC-150 to make room for a different project. Truck does run. But I had plans to swap in a modern motor and transmission. Body has been separated from the frame and some body work has been started. Has some rust in the cab corners and under the battery tray. But overall it’s pretty solid.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(08/05/2019) It has sat a while.

“Willys Jeep FC170 Forward Control. These are very rare, most people have never seen one. They were built from 1956-1965. Super Hurricane six, Rare four speed. All original running gear. Motor does turn over. It has sat many years inside an enclosed building. Probably needs Carb cleaned , new fuel pump, gas tank cleaned, New belts, hoses. Needs brakes checked. It rolls easy so it can be loaded on a trailer. I can assist with loading or shipping.
The back glass is not in it, but it is included. The gas tank was removed( I assume for cleaning)and is included with brackets. I have the extended front bumper and warn winch mounts. Everything is there except the frame covers that fit in front of the rear fenders. I think a sheet metal guy could make some easily. some of the stake bed brackets are rusted from holding leaves. Reproductions are available. Speedo is missing also.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.

The bed has some rust.
“For Sale is a 1959 Willys Jeep FC170. The truck has a flathead Hurricane straight 6. The drivetrain is all there, but the engine is locked up and is not feasible to get running without a total rebuild. The truck would make a great engine swap candidate. There is some rust in the normal spots but is all very fixable. The frame is near perfect.
There is body damage, as shown in the pictures and the windshield needs to be replaced. It has a good title.
These trucks are getting hard to find. This is a project truck and a really solid starting point.”

This lacks a title.
“I have a jeep FC 170 that I picked up with the intention of giving new life.
Sadly, too much life and too many projects have thwarted my intentions.
It was in rough shape when I got it and I haven’t touched it since I unloaded it some years ago. It is a serious undertaking if you were to try to bring this back to life, lots of rust and I don’t believe the engine is reusable though I don’t know that for certain.
I’d like to try to find it a home where it gets some sort of use before its no good to anyone. I wish I had been able to get to it myself.
I’m not sure on the value honestly. That is something I would happily discuss with a seriously interested party. They are tough to find but this one is rough, sadly.
I don’t have a title. It would come with a Bill of Sale, in NH, ME that and a vin verification are all that’s needed to reg to it wasn’t a problem for me. It looks like it was last registered in 2005 in VT.
I’m happy to answer questions but seeing it in person is going to give you the most info I think.
Thanks.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(07/03/2019) It has a tailgate. if it’s in good shape at all, that’s worth some money.

“1957 Jeep FC 150 if you do you know what these are but they are super rare. Jeep built the FC on the frame of the CJ.
This one is in rough shape has some rest in the cab however the bed is in good shape. Just like the CJ it as a t90 transmission. Is powered by the unique F134 F-head
This is a project don’t email me unless you’re up for the project. I do not have the title for this I bought this about 10 years ago at the Portland swap meet”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(06/22/2019) The title shows it as a “1951”, but the seller refers to it in the description as a 1959. I suspect the title is for another jeep.
