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 .
William spotted this beautiful FC-150.
https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/cars-for-sale/jeep/unspecified/2358349.html#&gid=1&pid=8
“1959 Jeep FC 150, ground up restoration. One of a kind. It has a flat head hurricane four engine, three speed manual transmission.”
UPDATE: Status Unknown. Was $6800.
If the floor patches aren’t too bad, this is worth a look.
“For sale I have a nice example of a 1956 Willys CJ5. This is running, driving, Jeep that is in good condition for a 64 year old vehicle. It runs, drives, shifts, and stops like an original 1956 CJ5.
The drive train includes the original L134 Willys Hurricane 4 cylinder, original T-90 three speed transmission, original T-18 transfer case (High/Low), Dana 25 front axle, and Dana 44 rear axle. The transmission shifts smoothly and the clutch operates as expected. The front axle has locking hubs. The electrical system has been converted to 12v.
The tub does have rust, some of which has been addressed by a previous owner’s DIY repairs. The rust is primarily in the floor and associated braces. However, this does not affect the drivability.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $450.
Looks like there’s $450 worth of parts here to me. Appears to have a set of Cutlas hubs.
“This Jeep has 7k put into the internal components (transmission was new from Kaiser Willy’s back in 2008, I did each wheel/brakes) jeep wouldnt start 10 years ago and has been sitting since… engine turns over last time I checked a fairly short while ago. I think it was a bad solenoid, since the engine turned freely. I don’t have the funds right now to continue this project, so my loss is your gain.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
Looks solid, but a few things aren’t original.

“Completely restored, rebuilt and or replaced. Frame off restoration. Many original parts. New springs, fuel lines, brakes, gauges, e-brake, wipers. Professional rebuilt engine, trans, diffs, transfer case. Best top included. Heater parts. To much to list. Must see to appreciate”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2500.
The body looks good in the pics, but I’d check out that driver’s side front frame rail, as to me it appears to angle outward. Still, there could be value here.
“57 Willy’s jeep apart to rebuild the engine. Engine is totally rebuild and ready to be put back together. I have no time and it is taking up space in my garage. Everything’s there for the jeep.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was Make Offer.
Could be worth a look.
“WW2 jeep willys engine. Engine is in a water pump. Marked MB. I’m not sure of the condition, but it does turn free. What you see is what you get. I would like to sell together. Please feel free to make an offer! I will consider any offer. Thanks”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $350.
These have the K-H stamp.
“Kelsey – Hays (K-H) 15″ rims from 1960’s Willy’s Jeep FC150 vintage pickup truck. Sandblasted and primed. Set of four.”
UPDATE: Now listed here: http://www.ewillys.com/2021/05/31/year-fc-150-youngsville-nc-4000/
Chris stopped to see this FC (equipped with a rear PTO and gearbox) and provided the following review:
“I looked at this today (12/27/19):
– The floors are rotting through.
– The drawbar is welded on.
– Some exterior parts are missing from the cab.
– Strangely has FC170 nameplates on the cab corners but it is definitely a wide-track FC150 with the F-134.
– Lots of body repairs with riveted panels
– No title, no governor, no bed, no other parts except what you see.
– The PTO was obviously added later as the shifter is outside the cab.
– The transfer case shift levers are all missing (mount is still there).
-Gentleman selling says it has not ran in probably 10 years but that he used to use it to mow a field.”

“This is a Forward Control Jeep turned into a tractor. It has beefed up springs, a rear Power Take-Off with an agri splined shaft, and an electric fan to enhance cooling at slow speeds. Has not run in years, tires are shot. Would make a great enclosed cab mower, or could be fitted with a backhoe.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $3500.
(12/30/2019) It’s a project with an L-head in it.
