Uh, Pawnshop, buying a Chinese-made Hummer in India is still buying an imported vehicle.

The H3 is an even bigger joke than the H2. Built on the Colorado frame, the H3 does nothing well except look stupid. If the Chinese want it, go for it.

I would love to see that photo, Rory, if you can locate. I saw an M-113 in Israel that was destroyed by a .50 in PLO hands during the Lebanon campaign. Swiss cheese....

Safe to say, a .50 will chew up anything pre-2000 on wheels. Without added armor, even a tracked Bradley and Warrior would have serious problems.

The detailing is super, but the XM-706E1 had full bench seats on each side. Only the USAF XM-706E2 had the flip down seats. Carbs were never painted black- too hard to find leaks.

Very nice.

emr, in my limited experience, drifting occurs with way too much pressure. It causes the tire to run only on the narrow center part of the tread and just drifts around. I had this on 14x20 ND bar grip tires.

Someone got a hellofa deal for sure.

Correct OD for a MUTT/Jeep; Now that is a whole can of worms best left to those guys...

I must correct you, Rory, on interior colors. Many armor vehicles have white interiors into the present. M-88 and M-113 for example. All through the 60's and after, M-114, M-60, and some M-706's, too.

Good idea

Any 4x4 that weighs that much, and does not have lockers is going to have problems. The IDF used lots of these captured from Egypt and Syria. They are fine as long as you don't get carried away off-road in soft sand or mud. Those reports were comparing it to a halftrack. Its not a halftrack.

I've not heard of anyone having a problem with historic tags in Ohio. I drive as much as I want. Never a problem, and as mentioned, no tags need to be mounted.

I'm going to drive my Pinz up...on Friday

Very nice. Great job with the paint.

Sounds good but aren't you going to need a few Germans, too? Looks like it might be a bit pointless otherwise...

I don't have a paint chart, so does anyone know if any of the mil-spec Gillespie paints offered are darker than the 34079 Forest Green? I'd like to find something a few shades darker.

What tire pressures do most run using singles, 14.00x20?

I only replace them with bolt-in racing types. Never have a problem again. You can get them from Summit.

Yes, I have driven several, beginning at Aberdeen in 1986. They are complex in that both engines must be running, and well, for it to move at all. The quality of the original paint and gaskets is very poor. But neat vehicle.
