Gotta have an approved ATF Form 6 for any military vehicle and parts.

They are extremely durable and off-road capable; well up to the task of being a military vehicle. For civilians, they are underpowered compared to their civy counterparts but not under military conditions. Like a Pinzgauer in that respect. Parts are very expensive but readily available. They are...

Not only did it have a gas engine but it was not armored. It was just a transport variant. The value would depend on paperwork, variant, condition and would range from $30K to over $80K. An Italian-contract variant in excellent condition sold two years ago for $130K in MI. The former DuPont...

Be afraid, be very afraid.

The article is misleading, but considering the communist rag that it is, no surprise. Part of the collection will be going elsewhere on the East Coast and part will be sold off.

You would need an approved BATF Form 6. The barrel would have to be demilled to US specs, or maybe not permitted for import at all.

The tire size is 14.00x20 so lots of options. The original Commando tires, however, have been out of production for years and hard to find. We use Michelins and Goodyears instead but NDT are also all over.

It was not a propaganda film, only an army news report about the decision to modify their current issue V-100s with a number of upgrades. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNAcKgUmgkc

Looks great.

There must be proper permits for the export- country where purchased- and import- US BATF forms. These are two different hurdles and are not related. Each country has its own export requirements; exporting from the UK is totally different than France for example. I have and maintain a federal...

Who had the green command tent set up?

Congrats! I hope you have many years enjoyment with it.

Looks like you are doing well. I had two Mk 2/3 Ferrets. They were a lot of fun. Just watch your fingers around the hatches. Especially with the kids; hatches should be LOCKED, either open or closed.

The standard issue Dunlop tires on Ferrets serve as run-flats. In fact, a delated Dunlop- which I have experienced- makes the Ferret simply harder to steer and far from flat. These are tough military-grade tires. No real need for anything more.

Wow, that will be nice.

Why is armor an issue when to can sell an entire armor vehicle in Canada?

Everyone who can ought to get to the Ropkey Museum's last rally; Sept. 20-21. This is a Friday-Saturday and it is a great rally and awesome museum. http://www.ropkeyarmormuseum.com/downloads/2013%20IMVPA%20Rally%20Flyer.pdf

The Ekranoplane cannot "fly" over land so there would be no way to get one to an airshow.

No matter what you buy, it is going to be a compromise. That's life. For first time armor, given all the factors- cost, availability, parts, fun, cool factor, etc.- it's hard to beat a Ferret. They all hold value, so you can always get your money back. while everyone wants a Mk. 2/3 with the...

It's a Brit thing; they never use Roman numerals for their designation. Mark 2/3
