This page lists some of the places on the Internet where you can buy and sell military vehicles or parts. As with many other military items of interest, a good place to start is at eBay. The eBay auction listings have military vehicles all the time. The eBay Motors section has a specific category for Military Vehicles. eBay also has a lot of support services to help you with the purchase and transport of the vehicle, or, if you are the seller, to make sure you get your money.

You can also post a message about your vehicle or wants on one of the military vehicle forums and discussion groupss. There are new possibilities almost daily as the fantastic growth of the Internet continues. Of course, printed magazines and other publications that specialize in military vehicles can still be a good place to advertise if you are not in a hurry.
