If you’re looking for a military-grade overland rig that’s already built, already sorted, and already more capable than almost anything on the trail, this 2001 AM General HMMWV M997A2 ambulance camper conversion from SavageBilt just might be the one. Offered for sale in Anaheim, California, with 8,000 miles, a clean Montana title, and an extensive camper build, it blends battlefield toughness with real-world livability. Powered by its 6.5L diesel V8, fitted with portal axles, rolling on 40-inch Toyo M/Ts, and carrying a fully outfitted four-bunk interior, it’s the kind of HMMWV conversion you simply don’t see often because very few are built to this level.
  • M997A2 Ambulance Platform With Modern Upgrades: Beginning life as an M997A2 ambulance, this HMMWV benefits from the longer, taller ambulance body—ideal for camper conversions thanks to its square walls and increased interior volume. SavageBilt acquired it in 2022 and refinished the entire truck in a white bedliner exterior over a black cabin and underbody, creating a rugged, uniform finish designed to survive weather, branches, and trail punishment.
  • 6.5L Diesel V8 with 4-Speed Automatic and Portal Axles: Power comes from the trusted 6.5-liter diesel V8, sending torque through a four-speed automatic transmission, dual-range transfer case, and military portal axles. The engine oil and transmission fluid were changed in October 2025, adding peace of mind to its low 8k-mile life. Inboard disc brakes and heavy-duty drivetrain components reflect the military hardware that makes these trucks legendary.
  • Full Exterior Overhaul and Adventure-Ready Features: The truck wears a custom-fabricated rear door and windows at the back of the ambulance body, plus LED lighting, tinted glass, a side-exit exhaust stack, hard doors with sliders, and blue underbody lighting. A 200-watt solar panel and exterior-mounted A/C equipment sit on the roof, with recovery boards and dual eight-gallon auxiliary fuel tanks mounted along the sides. The 3-inch lift clears the massive 40×13.50 Toyo Open Country M/T tires on body-colored 17-inch V-Tec wheels.
  • Four-Bunk Interior With Full Camper Amenities: Inside, the rear cabin carries four foam mattresses with quilted vinyl covers, overhead lighting, lockers, a refrigerator, storage cubbies, and a toaster oven—turning the military ambulance layout into a modular living space. The forward cabin adds a central touchscreen, overhead television, storage boxes, a quartz clock, a power inverter, door-mounted cupholders, and a blacked-out theme that matches the rest of the build.
  • Documented, Low-Mileage Example With Clean Montana Title: The odometer shows just 8,000 miles, consistent with its military-service life. It’s being sold on a clean Montana title with VIN 193535, matching the AM General serial number plate. The truck has not been inspected by the California Bureau of Automotive Repair or CARB and has not passed a California smog test, which is important for buyers intending to register it in California.
This build hits the sweet spot between military authenticity and overland-ready comfort. HMMWVs are naturally capable, but the ambulance-body M997A2 models are prized for conversions thanks to their enormous interior space. Add the portal axles, bedliner-coated body, 40-inch tires, solar power, A/C, bunk system, lighting, food prep gear, and storage volume, and you’ve got a rig that can run the desert, support multi-day expeditions, or serve as a wildly capable bug-out vehicle. Low miles, fresh service, and a clean title only strengthen its case. If you’ve been hunting for a turnkey tactical camper with true military pedigree, this is the one.
