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.
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 .
After a 570 mile journey, Craig nabs himself “the ever elusive FC-170 with the ‘Jeep’ Factory Approved “Trav-L-Aire Camper.” See a brochure about the camper here. You can read more about the purchase at the Forward Control Forum. Congrats Craig.
Here are some exclusive pics:
Nice one, Craig!
It just boring that someone mistreat the grille
Pascal … in this case, the good news is that they didn’t mistreat the camper too much 🙂
As the story goes from the original owner they had cooling problems so their first attempt was to get out the saber saw and open things up a bit. That not working they added a ridiculous scoop under the bumper to funnel more air to the radiator. This also failed. I believe the son said the problem was finally solved when they had stopped to let the old gal cool down and an “oldtimer” told them he knew what was wrong. A pulley change later on the motor and it has run cool ever since! Like Dave said the important part, the camper has been saved. I’m working on publishing all the details on The FC Connection and hope to have it posted later this week.
