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 .
Listed as a 1950s items, I suspect this was produced in the 1960s in conjunction with the Jeepster Commando.

I’ve seen these in chrome, but never in gold.
“Gold Jeep vintage ashtray in excellent condition. $85.00 OBO.”

UPDATE: Was $100. **SOLD**
“This is a solid metal table lighter, ashtray and cigarette holder. Made in Germany in 1950. If interested,”
It is missing its windshield, but otherwise looks in fair condition. I believe this was a dealer promotion. Here’s a slightly different version.
“Vintage Jeep Advertising Ashtray
Chrome-plated steel.
Measures 6 1/2″ in diameter.
The bowl portion of the ashtray rotates.
The 2 1/2″ long Jeep is missing its windshield.”

Here’s an unusual set of items.
“Here is a super cool lot of vintage lot of 1960s Jeep Tie Tacks and Cuff Links featuring the 2 Jeep Tie Tacks, a Jeep Gladiator Pickup Tie Tack, and Cuff Links featuring the 60s Jeep Wagoneer and Gladiator. The Jeep Gladiator Pickup Truck is marked Mercury Industries, with the rest are not marked. The lot is sold as pictured, looks and displays great with very good colors, and would be a very nice addition to your collection!
Please take a look at my vintage collectible listings, and I will gladly combine shipping to save you money.”

Here’s a CJ Dealer Promotion ashtray that Craig pointed out to me. However, it’s is located in Thailand.
“You are looking at a authentic old vintage used ashtray & jeep. 6 inch wide by 2 inch high for tray. Jeep itself is 2 1/2 inch long. Made of chromed metal. Extensive oxidation to chrome. Looks like it may not polish out. No tobbaco smell.”
