a full investigation is under way. Maybe we should just wait for the facts.

Wow, Z-Rex is sure a nice looking truck.

The very best $300.00 you will ever spend on a V-100 is for an Edelbrock 1405 Performer carb. Works great right out of the box. All you need is a stock manifold for a Mopar 316/383. I have seen these for as cheap as $15.00. Rory, you will kick yourself for not doing it years ago.

That motor is an M75 in M113 configuration. You just need to switch over the water pump pully and attach the fan. The stock carbs are crap though, even brand new.

^What he said.

Same as the French AML-90 but different engine. TINY inside and extremely top-heavy, but very cool. The French have sold the AML-90 all over the World, especially in Africa. The 90mm was effective against T-55 and T-62s during the Angolian and Congo wars.

Gotta have the transfer case. Windows are very expensive. The rest is easy.

Receiving your Saracen running in good order without issues is only a fraction of the overall ownership experience. Maintaining it will be the challenge. You will need a nitrogen tank to keep the accumulators charged properly and need a full set of manuals. Especially the transmission manual to...

Dogs allowed but keep on a leash.

Lifting the body would solve nothing. The A-arms and center are what get caught on HMMWVs as there really isn't an approach or decent angle.

This was a really cool event last year.

I would be concerned with the added torque you are planning to add to the track. Even the new track being produced is only designed for the original performance specs. The added weight and added torque could end up far exceeding the new track and stronger variant do not exist. Since you are...

The connector on the bailout cable is often the problem

I have a bunch of V-100 parts for Rory if you have room.

Nice shots.

Welcome. You don't see many Sampsons around.

For a first time vehicle, a Ferret is hard to beat. Cost, size, parts, all top the list. But it is not an APC. Nor will you ever find any armor to fit anyone over 5'8". Comfort is not their purpose. In the $10-30K price range, all you have are Ferrets and Saracens. And don't touch a Saracen ever...

You failed to mention your budget. You get what you pay for. Do you want a worn-out headache or a real usable vehicle? You seem confused on some vehicles, such as V-100s, and its intended use. Do you want street-legal? Can you license a tracked vehicle in NY? These are often complex machines...

Welcome from Ohio. I was just in Ireland last month.
