Any lead is a good lead
 
There has been some stuff on craigslist in Vancouver lately...jeeps, deuce and a halfs, and a Wells Fargo flatbed. As far as armour goes, not too much made it out here, except madill loaders made from sherman tubs. The BC club is called western command and they have a significant presence in the Fraser Valley and on the Island, with a freat museum in the old QM stores building at the old CFB Chilliwack. Google is your friend.
 
There are a lot more MV collectors and rebuilders in the US and Europe than in Canada. The first place I'd look (if I had your kind of money) would be dub dub dub miliweb.net. It is an adverstising-driven website for miitary vehicles.

Off the top of my head - there are new copies of Zundap sidecar motorcycles made in Russia; lots of old Opel 2WD cargo trucks in old farm yards across Europe; Kettenrads, VW Kubels and Schwims will be frighteningly expensive; Czech OT810 half-tracks (cut and welded to look like SdKfz 251's) are relatively common in the reenacters' circuit; Swiss-surplus Hetzers are probably the closest you'll get to a German AFV. And, if you really want to play with the big boys, introduce yourself to Kevin Wheatcroft in UK and the Jacques Littlefield Foundation in California. These collections are restoring Panther 5 tanks from wrecks. Absolutely amazing craftsmanship from the guys in the shops.
