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 .

“1956 willys jeep…good frame, body has had some patching, but is solid…gas tank not hooked up…runs/drives with temporary tank…motor sounds good…have not fooled with gas tank, brakes or plow…asking $1650 as is…Vemont doesn’t issue titles for older vehicles, sold with bill of sale…best to call and discuss…”
Neither run.
“One 1947 willys pickup and one 1950’s unsure of year. Buying both for one price. The yellow one is a 1947 and ran,drove before pulling motor for cracked block. I know where you can pick up another block for 100-200 $. This pickup also is a rare one being a 3 speed on the column. Has the 134 L 4 cyl. It is all original. It has a clean title. The other pickup has a great body and is also running. It has the straight 6 and floor shift. I have a complete front end for it but no bed. It has no title. These are projects and need work before driving. I have a set of good doors that go with them. ”

“1957 FC 150 Willys Jeep: Good Condition comes with the plow. Original Motor and Transmission. Serious Inquiries only. For further information please”
Jeff’s got a project FC and several other things for sale.
“Selling my ’58 Forward Control FC-170 and parts collection. The truck has a 292 Chevy 6 in it, runs and drives – barely. It wasn’t a bad runner before the wiring shorted out. It has a NOS carb and a Warn overdrive. Comes with a bunch of parts including a nice windshield, one side glass and a drivers door. Asking $1800
Also have another very nice rust free 9′ bed with fenders and all the other bits. Asking $1200
Last but not least I have a rare Forward Control T-98 4 speed with shifter, spacer – all the parts to install it except the main drive gear, I was going to put the overdrive in it. Herm the overdrive guy rebuilt it along with the transfer case and it’s hasn’t been installed. He didn’t much like the condition of the gear cluster so had to source a donor T-98 for those parts and it ended up costing me $1400 I even have the dog house cover with the 4 seed shift pattern plate on it. Asking $1600
I will take $4000 for the whole lot if someone will take it all.
There are more parts than shown in the photos, an original engine, another fuel tank, seats, wheels and tires, axles….. More photos available upon”

FAM’s model of the Willys Jeep is considered the most sought after miniature amongst Jeep enthusiasts for its attention to detail, proportions and gauges, and material usage in every respect.
Every part on these jeeps (as is the case with many of their other models) is manufactured by studying and measuring a dissasembled wartime vehicle. Parts are either soldered together or bolted; no glue is used. The sheet metal components on this vehicle are in formed brass, castings are bronze or white metal, the windshield, headlamps, parking lamps and instrument lenses are glass, shift boots and door straps are canvas, weather stripping is rubber or felt, and correct pattern Goodyear tires are made using their own molds in rubber.

It’s an ex-Navy jeep with a data plate.
“This Jeep has been the subject of a complete restoration to “good driver” standards. This means that the chassis has been cleaned, painted, all working parts replaced or repaired as needed. The brakes are new, brake lines and master cylinder are new, the emergency brake serviced and made to work well. The engine has been compression checked, all parts checked to make sure they work and do not leak, then painted. The transmission works and shifts correctly, drained and refilled, the transfer case works correctly. Both differentials have been repaired and re-filled with gear oil, they work well. Lockout hubs are installed on the front hubs. 12 volt electrics are installed, and the wiring harness is new. Tires are essentially new, (less than 150 miles). Windshield glass is new. The body is all NEW, not repaired, painted to look like a Vietnam-era Navy Jeep. IT IS LOADS OF FUN TO DRIVE, GETS GREAT APPLAUSE IN PARADES! ”

James shared this ad for a nice looking truck.
“This is an extraordinary running driving Willy’s truck. It has digital dash, super clean interior and new tires. Cash required to test drive. This is a great runner if you like all of it’s other features a test drive will make you love it.”

Craig spotted this one. Looks like a good price.
“REALLY COOL OLD JEEP – Clean Title
Runs & Drives Great, Excellent Candidate for Restoration.
Rebuilt 327 Vigilante AMC Motor w/ less than 500 miles, Automatic Transmission. Body has only 25K original miles on it, as it was used at a hunt camp and was only driven sporadically over the years. Floorboards & Frame are in Excellent condition, the Interior is in Good condition (7 out of 10).
This is a Beautiful Vehicle at a Great Price….wish I had the time to restore it.”
