Squadron/Signal has a book called "V-100 Commando Walk Around". The Walk Around series usually has photographs of museum vehicles. One must beware of museums throwing things onto their vehicles or markings that don't actually belong on said vehicle. Squadron also has their "US Amored Cars in Action" which also covers the V-100 some.
Osprey also has a book "Cadillac Gage V100 Commando 1960-71" (New Vanguard #52).

MY advice, use the Search function located up on the right hand side of this window. Search for V-100, or V-150, or M706. There has been alot of discussion and sharing of information in recent months.

If you are after Vietnam era reference then only look for V100 or M706 as the V150 wasn't used in Vietnam.

Neefukk,
You may have already come across this site larmyrecognition.com but on the page I've linked to there is a general description saying "The Dragoon wheeled armoured vehicle personnel carrier was produced by Arrowpointe Corporation (now General Dynamics Land Division) during the 1980s. It was based on the automotive components of the US Army's M113 APC's and 5 ton trucks. It resembled a larger V-150 Commando".
There is also a plan showing front, back, top and side elevations.
