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 .

“up for auction is my rare willys jeep fc 170. This is a cabover jeep pickup made for only a few years. The truck starts runs and drives well but will overheat after a few minutes and the brakes need attention. You will need to tow or trailer it away. A chevy 350 engine and automatic trans have been installed. The front driveshaft has not been fitted. The vehicle needs work. The body is solid with minimal rust for the year. It has been a California car all its life. It is a very charismatic vehicle that gets smiles and waves wherever it goes.”
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $25,000
“For sale, a very rare (1 of 1,119) 1964 Kaiser Jeep Forward Control 170 3/4 ton pickup truck. 1964 was the last year of production for the FC-170 and the end of the Kaiser/Jeep era. This could be your only chance to ever buy a fully restored FC-170, no kidding they are that rare.
This Jeep was fully restored by a professional shop in 2010. Nothing was overlooked, full frame off restoration. Since restoration the Jeep has accumulated approximately 1000 proven miles and runs great. I has the original power train with the legionary Super Hurricane 6 cylinder engine.
Has PTO driven front winch
Custom fuel tank
Custom rear bumper with LED tail lights”
Seller is parting out.
“I have a 1960 Jeep FC-150 that I am doing a quick part out on. The cab/doors/bed are all pretty rusted, and windshield and driver’s window are broken, but there are still parts on her that are worth saving including:
axles
door handles
window cranks
glove box
seat frames
sun visors
engine cover
trailer hitch
front bumper
steering wheel
dash
gear shifters
interior trim pieces
Passenger glass, rear glass, both quarter glass
If you need something, give me a call and I can see if it is still there. Unless it is something small, I don’t really have time to remove anything, so it will be on you to get it off/out. But give me a call and we can discuss availability and price.
Right now, the frame, tailgate side emblems and possibly the engine/trans are spoken for, and this weekend I am considering cutting her nose off to keep around the house. In a week or two, what is left will go to the scrap yard.”

“Hi all, for sale is a 1959 Willys FC-150 truck. It has the 3 speed transmission, 3 speed transfer case, and the hurricane f-134 f-head 4 cylinder. Clean title, solid bed, and solid cab. Does not have the typical windshield frame rust. Factory optioned rear pto. Includes spare tire. Passenger door window is broken bus is flat glass that can be cut. Windshield is not chipped or cracked and all of the hard to find parts are there. Has 39,000 original miles and engine runs well, but could use a tune up. Will need brakes and electrical work to be a driver. Willys only made about 3,000 of these trucks in 1959, so they are a pretty rare find. This is a true 1 ton work truck!
Would consider trades for an air-cooled vw (either bus, truck, beetle, or type 3 or 4), a few nice guitars and cash, nice amplifiers and cash, a newer truck, or a chevy corvair.”

Maybe an FC? Seller thinks it is rare. The four speed is what made me wonder if it is an FC.

On first glance this looks great, but there’s some damage under the front panels on both sides of the cab.
“Hello this FC150 runs very well. It is 90 to 95% original. Perfect for parade floats low gear works great.”
