@raginroadrunner agree with all, except they were sent to the scrap pile early: i was i nthe 82d in the mid '80s and the goats were still alive and kicking. That's a whole decade after the viet guys, so it doesn't seem to be thrown away early. Then again, maybe they were unique to the 82d at the time, i know the sheridan was so maybe bragg was the last hanger-on to the goat. Dunno.

I worked on these in the Army. Dangerous and hard to work on, aluminum hull...they went to the scrap pile early in their career. So noisy to drive with the Detroit engine setting in the chassis backwards between the two operators. Not something would ever wan to drive again. Operators in Viet Nam refused to drive them as you could get out of the drivers seat in a short time when being shot at. In a combat situation they were a death trap.

You in Michigan?
If this was to EVER go for-sale, you gut give me a ring!

every thing was custom made. Some for our independent trucks and some for this particular app. Tires are 49 inch Irocs. We are having some minor problems with the cooling on the 526 Cadillac motor. Are you having any issues with cooling yours?
