What a way to butcher a rare FV432 with Fox turret model. Could have at least painted it yellow like this one.

The Pinz can hang at 45 degrees off camber, more than enough to say they are certainly NOT top heavy. They are not as wide as a HMMWV or a Unimog and can therefore go many more places than each. In fact, U.S. Special Forces and Special Marines are using new ones in Afghanistan over the HMMWV in...

You are right, but only cause its Thursday.

It has armor between the driver and engine. The engine is outside the M-113 hull.

At $127,000.00+ EACH??? !!!

Can you imagine the racket it would make on concrete? It would have to be the best thing going in pure mud...

Nice collection. I should have bought a Lynx back when I had the chance. Neat vehicle. A hammock works well from an Abbot barrel as well:razz:

If you like armor as well, drop me an IM when you get to the area.

What era?

Yes, solid tan with black markings. 5SFG at the time was participating with the 101st on peacekeeping mission in the Sinai and training Egyptian Forces. They also had a detachment in Saudi. Both were in their AO.

I saw M151A2/TOWs in desert colors while at Ft. Campbell in 1986. 5thSFG had two parked in their compound along with several other desert painted vehicles.

Sadly, he just passed away last week...a 10 year battle with cancer...only 59.

Makes sense.

Nice complete interior. Shorter USAF/M-706E2 bench seat, however. Correct full length models are available, NOS.

Parkerizing only works on steel/iron not aluminum. Most replicas on the market have a lot of aluminum parts, which would have to be anodized for a similar finish.

Who is insisting on the white star? Lots of VN vehicles had black or no star.

Real M-2's have a phosphate finish usually referred as Parkerized. It is a really dark gray, almost black but no quite. It is very flat. High temp flat black has been around forever for grills, stoves and such.

Actually, the one from Three Kings, The Siege, and Broken Arrow, as well as two others from The Siege, are owned by list members.
