At least two jeeps that were part of the 106th Infantry Division have made their way into the hands of people who have lovingly restored them and are interested in the history of those jeeps and the men who rode in them.
Here are the links to the threads in which photos of the jeeps can be found-- and where you can connect with the owners/ restorers:
591st Field Artillery Battalion Jeep
The owner of a WWII Willys Jeep with 106th 591st markings is looking for info on its history and the men associated with this jeep.
The post is in the 591st discussions. Scroll down a bit to find the jeep photos.

424th Infantry Regiment Jeep
This jeep from the 2nd Battalion now resides in France.

It's interesting that the two jeeps whose owners have made their way to this board both served the same Regimental Combat Team, as the 591st Field Artillery Battalion fired in support of the 424th Infantry Regiment.
