there's popcorn there?
I’m touched by your concern, thank you! But you should spend a little time looking at the Requirements for Manufacturers of Motor Vehicles and Motor Vehicle Equipment Items that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration publishes.You should not build any more of these for sale to the public for use on public roads because to do so is in complete, willful violation of dozens of NHTSA regulations for vehicle completion manufacturers. You really should have your counsel look into this, before you get shut down or slapped with a lawsuit you can't pay. While you are at it, have him check into the fines for operating your utterly non-compliant paint operation which you picture in your ads.
Ha! That's funny! Thanks for lightening the mood!!I’m touched by your concern, thank you!

He said "Touched" ! Can't wait for the rebuttal and redirect. Where you at NDT?
Pass the popcorn!
We actually use standard tempered automotive glass for safety. Same glass that we use in the front windshield of all the Deuces and 5-tons that we do.What to do you use for amor glass or is it fake too?
I had a Hummer H1 uparmored thru a company in Miami and that glass was 2" thick and didnt go up or down. It also had a slight distortion in it. I had to replace that distorted window and they said the glass alone was almost 4 grand. Thats why I was curious is it was real or not.
Kevlar isn't cheap, and true armor plate steel is both expensive and hard to get these days due to the demand for it for real MRAP production.$45000 to armor it? Way more then that since its $65000 to armor a H1 and thats not counting the H1 itself. Good thing I didnt have to pay for it. It was part of my work benifits package.
There is a reason most of these armored trucks cost 150 to 200 grand or more. Kevlar isnt cheap. Ive been looking into buying Kevlar fabric and installing it into my bobber as heat, sound, and extra SHTF protection. That was until I saw how much they want for it. lol Back to using lizzard skin. lol
Too bad you are in CA, would love to come see your toys.
We actually do a few things for Uncle Sam. Our main business on the truck side is the development of several navigation components and a datalogger integrated with GPS for their autonomous vehicle navigation program. We also have a division that builds Multi Channel Power Amplifiers for Man Portable Sat Packs and Remote Infrared Cameras currently being used to watch border crossings in Afg.What exactly is it you do for the DOD?
I am involved some in contracting on the DOD side, and find it interesting that they have a civilian contractor rebuilding trucks in the manner you indicate in your Ebay ad.
I assume you have a CAGE code? How is the contract structured? I have ome of my units in CA, and depending on how it is structured I may be able to send you some work, as we have some trucks badly in need of paint and are running into headaches getting them done via normal channels.
I am asking here because while all the contracts are public record, it is easier to ask then for me to go digging for all the contracts in your zip code...
