Owning any armor in the U.S. is not a matter of law, its a matter of availability. There are several M-113's in private hands, one for sale right now in Brevard, NC. A few Lynx are here- former Canadian and Dutch. Nothing is illegal, and certainly nothing in Canada that we can't own here.

But Jacques only collects, he seldom ever sells...

First, they are all 40+ years old and very well used when they were surplused. Second, during that 40+ years, they were serviced by conscripts who could not have cared less. So, they are usually very worn out already. Being the nature of most armor, they are hard to work on as far as access, but...

Where do you get rims that will work with the 14x20's?

You can have the out of state verification done at many car dealerships. Its only a verification that the VIN matches your paperwork. Its not an inspection. As for titling in Ohio with only a Bill of Sale, depending on the state from which it came, its real easy. I've titled vintage vehicles in...

But those are just resin/plastic solid castings. I like IRAC for dummy guns. Steve does great work. The guns are so exposed and important on a Gun Truck, they really need to look authentic.

No problem Ruppster. We are all here to share and learn. We have been running the Edelbrock manifolds on M75's on several V-100's for over 7 years with no problems. we were told the coolant lines were run through the manifold for cold weather running, so we blocked it at the water pump. No...

The British Army in West Berlin used a similar camo on their armoured vehicles in the 1960's. Looked pretty cool.

beltfed34 on Ebay has them very reasonable.

Rumpster, ALL my comments were in regards to the M75 as used in the V-100 with the particular 350 Holley/ vacuum govenor setup that you are not familiar with. I wasn't addressing any truck applications at all.

JimK is correct on his engine details. The Stock Holley 4-barrel is only a 350 cfm and never worked very well. An Edelbrock 1405 Performer 650 cfm and Edelbrock, or even stock Mopar manifold, work miracles on the M75 engine. Easily 20hp+ gain and smoothness out the whazoo... The Only way to go...

Beautiful restoration! Very cool!!:-D

I suggest you Google the engine and join any number of the diesel engine forums that address that engine. I'm sure you will find what you need there.

In regards to the biggest gun on any gun truck, you have to think through the application: counter ambush against forces with only light cover and spread out. For light brush, you need saturation fire. In Iraq, where you have thick concrete walls and buildings, precise direct fire with a punch...

Rephrase: Nothing on an M1117 is the same as a V-100 except the general appearance/layout. A complete list of differences would mirror a complete vehicle parts list.

The M1117 ASV is not a new production vehicle. They have been building them for over 10 years. It is twice the weight of a V-100 with heavier axles, wheels, and armor. A V-100 grandson more than anything, sharing basic layout and mission. Originally built for Bosnia/Kosovo, they now serve in...

Any help appreciated.

Go on Ebay and search seller beltfed34 Austin has a lot of SINCGARS stuff
