Hi all,
I'm looking for anything on the LVTP5 variants. Also on the Ontos and the V100 (m706) armored car. Anything at all will be helpful.
Thanks in advance,
Chuck

Hello Chuck, here's a little info for the LVPT...some pretty nice photos. Don't forget to click the "next page" at the bottom, more pics there.

So far I've only been able to find very little on the M706.

Okay, now for the venerable M50 Ontos. There is a thread here onboard that talked about the M50 a bit. Mostly about the scale models of it:

The next link below is PDG. This has got to be the best reference sites I've seen for any one particular military vehicle to date!

Great stuff. Enjoy.

Chuck in furthur looking, I found out that Osprey Publishing has a book in the New Vangaurd Series titled " Cadillac Gage V100 Commando" # NW52



I'll look around a bit to see if I can locate who's got it.

Hi You can check in the Osprey direct site and online shopping, I've bought from them with no problems....
At: OSPREY it cost US$14.95 and will become available in May, 25 2002.
Cheers!
