Is that made out of armor plate or mild steel (A36 or equiv.)? How much does it weigh?

Maybe the beginning of the VW Fox
 
It is a Fox. Not to be confused with the VW FOx, but the origins are from Germany.

The more recent models are British and were powered by a Jag 6 cyl.

Has aluminum armour and weighs in around 14k #.

Had many versions, but the most common had a 30mm cannon and a 7.62mm gun.

It is 1968 LAV 100. This one was an Air Force Model originally. It hads been modified extensively already - no where near complete yet.

Original (when he got it)
The shop a few years back when I was in.
Just for fun.

Well it finally breathed life, and got out of the shop for a little while yesterday. It still has a few things to work on.

Thinking if everything goes right I may just use this for my tow vehicle when we go to Lanier.

You have already peaked Johns interest. He might as well bring it to Lanier. Maybe he could make a sale or two.

Somebody will ask sooner or later... what kind of gas mileage does it get? ;)
