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 .

For what the truck would need to my knowledge would be a carb rebuild, new gas tank and the glass is cracked. Interior (two seats) need recovering. However its a great project and would look amazing when finished, i just don’t have the time. I’m here to sell”
Could use more pics.

“1957 Jeep FC150.
– Been in the family for about 30 years
– Rhino lined truck bed and interior about 20 years ago
– New exterior paint about 15 years ago
– Original engine (Hurricane 4 Cylinder), transmission (3 Speed Manual with Overdrive), etc. with some modifications (overdrive and locking hubs added before initial purchase)
– The engine turns over but it won’t completely run on it’s own. I suspect that the fuel pump is the issue but I’m not certain. The engine isn’t seized though. Last started and ran about 3 years ago.

Please call, text, or email with any questions.”

Neat FC with an EZ Dumper on the back.
View all the information on eBay
“I purchased this FC in West Covina California in 2011. It had no engine or transmission but was unusually rust free. I shipped it back and bought a running but very rusty FC locally. I had the engine rebuilt by Carlquist Competition Engines in Oakville CT. I installed new seals and bearings in the transmission and transfer case, an alternator conversion kit, a new water pump, a new carburetor, electric fuel pump and all new wires and sensors. The exhaust is also new from manifold to tailpipe. The front end, brakes, and bearings were in good shape. I then bought the (used but like new) EZ Dumper bed and adapted it to fit the frame. I added rear fenders and a custom aluminum fuel tank. The tires were new 5 years ago and have less than 10 miles on them.
There are 2 electric fans ( one pushing, one pulling) on an adjustable temperature switch for cooling.The FC appears to have had a prior restoration years ago. It starts and runs well and I have many extra parts from the rusty FC and a spare CJ3A engine, including ; front and rear axles, a rebuildable block head and crankshaft, 4-15″ rims, misc interior trim parts, distributor, pistons and connecting rods 2 Carter carburetors (the new carb is a Solex) a new Carter aftermarket replacement carb, front and rear springs, misc. bolts and linkages a front and rear windshield and a complete dashboard.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** $1000.

“Have a old 60s Jeep fc 150 ,4cyl hurricane, manual transmission,PTO, lockut hubs. Looks like everything is there. Three right rear lugs are broke off. Guessing that is why they quit using it. Body is fiberglass well built. Needs some work but one of a kind Jeep.”
I think the seller is a little understated when he indicates that this is an “easy restoration”.
https://joplin.craigslist.org/cto/d/jeep-fc170/6677077052.html
“I have a very nice original Jeep FC170 for sale. It does not have the usual rust that these trucks normally have. It is a complete truck of sorts, it has a GMC 9′ bed instead of a Jeep bed. The FC170 beds are now available as a reproduction on EBAY. This truck also has the PTO on it. 16″ tires as well. It sports the 6 cylinder engine. This would be an easy restoration. Please see my other listings for FC’s. I am moving and cannot take them with me.”
Not sure how much value is here.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7000.
(05/28/2018) Has potential. Is that a keg underneath the truck bed just behind the cab?

“Willys FC150 Cab Forward Jeep, CJ5 chassis, 4 cyl, 3 speed, runs, drives, registered. Can deliver for extra charge.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $1500.
Some parts value here.
“I have decided to part ways with this project and invest in something else. The red unit is a cab/box, the gray is a chassis unit serial 10265 (VERY EARLY SERIAL).
Neither trucks have titles. Both engines appear to be locked up. The red engine won’t budge, and the gray one appears to be frozen as well, but I haven’t taken much time on it. The rear end on the gray one seems to be locked up, so I have rigged up a trailer axle for rolling/transporting. No glass for either one. The red unit has a box that is in rough shape, but could be saved. Between the two, there should be more than enough to patch one together, or supply parts for your other project.
Re-posting these Jeeps because I had someone in the Jeep community commit to picking these up over 2 months ago, and decided not to get them after all. First $1500 in my hands gets both.
If interested, I can take specific pictures of areas of concern. Email me your contact information if interested in these trucks. If this is posted, they are still available, so let’s just skip the “Do you still got them” communication and get down to getting these beauties in your hands!”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6500.
(07/15/2018) Undriveable.

“1957 Jeep FC 170 cab”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $2800.
Appears to have some rust, but runs.
“I have a 1959 Willys FC170 for sale. I’ve owned it for about two years and purchased it locally. It had a flatbed on it when I bought it and luckily I found a pickup bed for it in martinsville. It was bought new here in Bloomington and has spent its entire life in Monroe county. I’m the third owner of this truck and I do have a clear Indiana title. It has the original 226 hurricane 6cyl that does run. The 4 wheel drive works in both high and low range. It’s rusty, but unique and would make a great project. The truck comes with lots of literature and original documents. It is complete and uncobbled but does need brakes, tires, and a fuel tank. I’m asking $2,800 obo and do not need any help selling this item.”
UPDATE: Philip pointed out that an article about these FCs is on Barn Finds, along with new Craigslist links. These have been available for a while.
https://barnfinds.com/fc-find-jeep-forward-control-truck-collection/
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay
Seller lists this as a 1956, but it doesn’t look like a narrow track to me. And, I technically, the first year for the FC-150s was 1957.
