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 .
UPDATE: This appears to have been sold. Price was $750.
There is some value here.

“1948 CJ-2A Willys Jeep Has title and VIN plates. Hurricane F-Head 134 I4 engine three speed transmission & twin stick transfer case. This jeep is all stock except for the 2 inch lift Rancho leaf springs and 31″ narrow super swampers. It has a TJ roll cage, extended bed, and bucket seats. Electric fans cool the engine and the old cam & leaver steering has been swapped out for a conventional manual Saginaw box. It does need a master cylinder. Other than that it runs and drives. A fun trail jeep or nice stock restoration project.”
Repainted, new interior (red with white piping), new headliner, wooden door panels, wooden (Oak) flooring, original bumpers, etc.
Mechanically sound, Chevy engine, new brake system from master cylinder to brake shoes, new tires and wheels, 4×4 with dual sticks.
Window are not tinted, just looks that way in picture.
Looks great, worth much, much more.
Must see, but please be serious.”
It seems to be a Willys/Jeep Truck and Wagon day. So, let’s start with this old brochure Glenn forwarded to me. I’d like to see a brochure that shows all 50 options referenced in the brochure. Note this is a brochure put out by Willys of Canada.
“Well I’m sure no expert on old Jeeps, but a friend of mine gave me this FC-170. His dad is 80 years old, and has had it for many years. This is what I would call “Barn Fresh.” It has been sitting in a barn for at least the last 5 years or so idle. He says it was running and driving when it was last parked.
Here is what I know about it. It’s a 63′ or 64′, and it says Kaiser/jeep Corp on the I.D. plate. It is a factory flat-bed, 1 ton with dual rear wheels. This thing is rated to cary over 2 tons! It weighs 3,720 pounds empty, and has a G.V.W. of 8,000 lbs. Delivery date was Sept of 1963. It has a 6 cyl. flat head engine, and a manual transmission. The rear end is a Dana 70 and the front end is a Dana 30. This jeep has 5:37 gears I’ve been told. This Jeep could be used for parts, or better yet… be restored.
The engine turns free, and I’m sure someone more mechanical than myself, could have it up and running again in fairly short order. I do not have a title for it, and can only offer you a bill of sale. The previous owner has alzheimers (he can not locate the title). I do have the shop manual for it.
It’s sure not perfect, but it’s not real rusty like some I’ve seen. (I would say its 99% rust-free). This jeep is over 48 years old and being sold as is. I would much rather you plan for the worst and hope for the best, than be disappointed in any way. My opening bid is 950.00 with no reserve. Now all that having been said….. I can’t imagine finding a better FC170 for the price…I only want the buyer to be happy with it…Thanks.”
