    UK APC's/Tanks (FV432/CVRT) in States

    Dave is correct on all counts. Your statements are contradictory however. First, you state you are going to import, then sell. Then you say not. I'm confused.

    223 german armored car

    Crapgame has a great suggestion. If you build a front-engined 247, you can have your choice of 4x4 pickups and can get the wheelbase exactly correct.

    I'm having trouble determine the name of this vehicle
