I recently acquired this, 1943 Autocar, all original including the armor. Started life as a M15A1, then converted by U.S. Army to Quad mount, (w/o fold down side armor) now is a M-3

I see you bought the Halftrack from Rich. It's a good looking machine.

Local friend rebuilt a White half track from a log hauler to full armor plate and 50 cal dummy gun. He had a group of WWII veterans as passengers for out local county parade . I do not know who was grinning the most the owner or the Vets. You have a nice unit have fun, Mark

Well, that took about two seconds. Saw thread, opened thread, saw picture, that caused something to get stiff, then the wet gooey feeling and now it's soft but I'm still excited all within about 2 second. I wish I could have a half track, I think that would get me some interesting looks heading to work.

Nice! I am hunting for an M16, it's not easy to find nice machines. How does she drive? Everything I read, you have to stay below 40 mph... How fast have you gone and does it feel safe and secure going down the road at 30-35 mph?
Did it have the Maxson turret (quad mount)? You mention it in your post, but doesn't look like it's in the photos.

If I was younger and had the funds I would have one!

I saw that for sale on another site. A halftrack is on my bucket list.
