Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
i was thinking of picking it up i just dont to much about this truck the name plate on the front says GMC and has a crane on the back
Yep that is what my book states, If that is the case and this is IT, WOW what a find, hope you can get it for a good price and the current owner doe not know what it is, though if he is a SSer then forget thatM-A-N, stands for Maschinenfabrik Augsburg-Nurnberg.
In 1989 GMC and MAN teamed up to compete for the Army PLS contract.
If I recall correctly only one prototype was built, and from the lights that looks like it. If so, as 73m819 said, it is powered by a Detroit Diesel 8V92TA, with an Allison 5-speed and a Rockwell transfer case.
It is quite different from the M-A-N KAT. My neighbour, Sarge, has one of those, it is an interesting vehicle.
Cheers
