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 .
Several readers let me know that Hemmings had an article celebrating 60 years of the FC.
This article below was published 60 years ago this month in the May 1957 issue of Willys News.
Larry spotted this FC-170. He writes, “We are vacationing in Sedona. There are newer jeeps and jeep tours all over the place so we took one. As we were coming over the hill, there she was, an Fc170 tow truck. It was totally redone and beautiful. The kid in the shop had no idea what it was (some kinda jeep thing). It wasn’t for sale but it was great to see”.
Those familiar with this wrecker recognize it as Wayne Trent’s former FC. You can see some video of it here.
And here’s my photo of it from one of the FC-Roundups in Phoenix.
Looks like a slat grille behind the GP.

Staring price on these is $20 for all three. That’s a good price.

The other day I spotted a set of 5 new Super Traxion tires and 4 all season tires mounted on four jeep rims for only $600 on Craigslist. The Traxion tires were perfect for his jeep and the four all season tires were great for Rusty, as both of us are headed to Alaska. Wade and I joined forces and bought the tires. Two days later, he and I met in Bellingham, Washington, so I could give him the tires and enjoy some Mexican food for dinner. At dinner, Wade gave me the follow sign and stickers he had printed up at his sign shop. The sign has a thick aluminum backing. It’s great! The Dispatcher Magazine shows the size of the sign and the stickers.
Thanks Wade!
I’d still like to get one of these.
