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 .
Maybe an FC? Seller thinks it is rare. The four speed is what made me wonder if it is an FC.
“Rare 1958 Willys Jeep all Original except for the beautiful 3D Professional camo custom paint. very clean in and out majority of restoration has been done. Jeep runs great! the reason this vehicle is so rare it came from The Factory with 4 gear shifters And a Wench in front. the 4×4 is incredible, nothing can Beat It. blinkers, lights, even this cigarette lighter and winch in front Work. this is the ultimate hunting or 4×4 vehicle you must see It to Believe it give me a call”
Glenn spotted this jeep. Lots of pics and info on eBay.
“This particular early model year ’62 Jeep FC-150 4×4 truck was found in dry storage in the corner of a Texas barn by the current owner. It was last registered on the street in 1998 after some mechanical restoration efforts by the previous owner(Hurricane-4 Engine Rebuild) . Today it runs out strong and drives down the road, goes through the gears and is an overall solid and enjoyable FC-150 as is or could be restored to the level of your choosing. It has been lightly used around the farm and stored in a nice concrete floor shop here at the Texas owner’s private residence.”
(03/17/2016) “This is a Willys FC 170 cab over. It’s in perfect running shape with little body damage. I wanted to keep the body as is but the engine and wiring is all new. The truck is all there with no missing parts.”
“I have a pair of Fc170 jeeps..the gray primer one has a lot the body work done….it has the original 6 gyl engine that runs! it also comes with the RARE factory option rear PTO ! not many of these cab forward jeeps…. the second jeep came with a 289 ford engine installed..be a great winter project for someone…the windshield is broken out..yet I have the address to purchase a new one..the box is also available as a new reproduction”
“Got several Arizona Willys classics for sale. All need tender loving care but the bodies are in great shape and are pretty much complete (except the FC). Got a 1960 Willys pickup with the 226 Hurricane flathead 6. Got the Willys wagon that I had the upholstery done on, its in the shed. Got an awesome, pretty much rust free FC170 but its missing the engine and trans and seats. Restore to original or put your 4BT Cummings or whatever in it. Also have a running/ driving 1981 Jeep Wagoneer, the tranny needs work but I drove it up from Strawberry. Willing to deal to fund another salt racer but don’t lowball me please. Also have an extra pickup cab, front end and misc parts and pieces. Buy it all or parts and pieces. You can call my 10 cents a minute cell, I’ll take your number and call you back on my home number.”
This FC is supposed to be all original, including paint.
“(antique, classic, four wheel drive)For sale is an original 1963 Willys Jeep FC170 still in the original owners name. Original paint red and white.

About the Jeep Forward Control 150
A pick-up truck that was produced by Willys and then Kaiser Jeep from 1956 to 1965. It was also assembled in other international markets. The layout featured a cab over (forward control) design.
The Forward Control models were primarily marketed as work vehicles for corporate, municipal, military, as well as civilian use. Regular pickup box beds were standard, but customers were offered a large number of “Jeep approved” specialized bodies from outside suppliers.
Buyer is responsible for shipping fees, shipping arrangements, and pickup in Yuma, Arizona.”
