Everyone was having a problem connecting to my first post . I post the photos in msn armorama photos. http://groups.msn.com/armorama/xm45e1.msnw?albumlist=2

Nice work...I have a question inspired by laziness, (too laxy to check for myself)

What is the difference between the XM45E1 and the M548 it is obviously based on?

The only differance I could find is that it has an armored cab to give some protection to the crew while supporting the flame thrower vehicles. I had seen these vehicle in Vietnam while stationed there in the Mid sixties but I only found one photo to go by to build it. I never thaought but may be Gen Sabot might have some more info on this vehicle
