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 .
I picked up these four 20″ x 30″ vintage tour jeep photos. The first image shows a tour-jeep-wagon that kept part of the door and roof, similar to what was done with the FC Tour Jeeps. As you can see in the other photos, usually door was lopped and all of the roof and upper sides, except the windshield, was removed.
With the Philippine government’s decision to modernize public transportation comes the need to make the famous Jeepneys more environmentally friendly. To that end, the 76-year-old Franciso Motors company has partnered with Tembo, who will provide electrification kits to Franciso Motors. Francisco spotted this older Jeepney, noting it was one the company built.
Francisco Jeepney makes both public transportation-sized Jeepneys and smaller, more familiar-sized jeep-like vehicles called Oners (if I understand the site correctly). .
Here is Elmer Francisco describing his goal with electric Jeepneys (takes a about a minute to get to the interview):
There were a few different Willys vs. IH Scout brochures released about the same time that this February 1961 brochure was printed. One interesting bit about this brochure is that the DJ-3A is included in comparison agains the 2WD IH Scout. This brochure appears to be 10 pages and is currently priced at $24.50 with $5 shipping.

Nice looking build.
“1960 Jeep Forward Control FC 150 “Slow Tow” Custom build. Original 4cyl, 3sp original drive train. 4wd works as it should. Cranks and runs first try every time. Front PTO that runs the original Ramsey winch. All lights, turn signals, etc work properly. This truck is a real head turner every where it goes. Top speed is a little over 50mph. You can feel all of the factory rated 72 hp. Towing set up is just for show. This was a complete frame off tear down and rebuild. Zero rust on frame. Notice the wiring…there isn’t a rats nest hanging under the dash like many of the other ones listed. Hester works. I put a couple hundred miles on it during cruisin the coast and did the same for jeepin the coast. I own several of these but this is the most fun and I drive it the most. I am moving soon and only have room to keep a few items. Make me an offer because it has to go. Clean title in hand.”
This is supposed to be a former Red Cross Jeepster. Thanks to Bill for spotting it.

I think that’s a defroster setup across the windshield?

“1964 Willy Jeep FC150 Fc-150 forward control. Starts on starting fluid. Moves, shifts, been sitting since 2016. Clean Indiana title in my name. Good vin plate. At the time it was the only fc-150 titled as such in Indiana. Tires hold air for a few hours. Not drivable but could be pretty easily. F134 engine. I believe it to be a 4 speed trans. Reverse is up and to the right. Aftermarket bed. Rusty sheet metal. Solid frame. 4×4 with manual hubs. Western cable plow not currently operational. 6 foot blade. Project. Broken windshield and drivers window is cracked. Roof has rust above gutters. It’s cool because it still exists. I believe I am the 3rd owner. Originally owned by a concrete company in a nearby town. Drum brakes. Manual steering, mechanical clutch. Bring a trailer. Only trade may consider is a Chevy 2500 plow truck or better”
Listed as a 1948, the body appears to be a VEC, probably ’46. It has an early grille, too.
