Every aspect of this vehicle is restored including new waterproof rubber hatch and door seals. Entire vehicle repainted inside and out. Chrysler 361 V8 engine was police dept. maintained. Mechanically sound - runs great. 24 volt electic system. The ingintion system was converted to 12 volt so tune-up is easy with parts available at any auto parts store. Can easily be converted back to original 24 volt ignition system if you desire. New carburator. Military air cleaner was removed by police dept. Uses same engine as m113 APC's so original airhorn and filter assembly parts are still available. Former Police SWAT vehicle and their mechanics maintained it well!"

V100 Commando Armored Car, M706, 1972 Cadillac Gage, Military Police, Vietnam for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.25) based on 935 votes

This is a rare armored military vehicle built by the Cadillac Gage Corporation.    This is one of only a handful of complete and restored V100's around.    The hull design of these vehicles was advanced for its' time and the original company (now Textron) still manufactures similar vehicles in military service today.   The first V100's (XM706) were originally used in Vietnam by ARVN Armored Units and later adopted my US Military Police Units in Vientam.   They were primarily used for convoy escort and airbase security duty.   Much more info and video is available on-line - more than I can type here.   Just search V100 Commmando or V150 Commando.   For great info 3:30 minute video produced by Cadillac Gage. search v150 commando on you tube. http://www. youtube. com/watch?v=vtEzeJmzSow&feature=player_embedded

Very nice V100. I am a member of a police department in New England who aquired a former military V100 for our department. Can you give me any direction as to where to obtain parts for these units? I do have the full service manual for the unit, but I am trying to get an idea if there is a specific resource for parts if the need arises or is everything custom due to the age.

Thank you,
Kevin

what is location of this v-100? do you have more detailed pictures? are you sure of the date? it appears you have an earlier varient based on several features (round mirrors, mounts, etc...).
