Oh wow... that thing looks great.

Any insider info on that beast? Suspension?
 
LOL, man that is a fat dog!
 
My brother works where they built it, telling me all about it. Said Robby gets all his money from the cally ship yards, his family business from what he was told. That's how he gets to play with anything he wants. CO's aren't even built in Cleveland anymore if I remember correctly.

I think I'd would have tricked out a surplus HEMITT for 1/2 the cost and would have been been twice as capable.

good luck finding one. There's hardly any out there. The last 2 i've seen weren't cheap either.....one needed a full resto and didn't run, missing tons of parts, sold for $25K, the other was restored and in great shape for driving, and sold for about $80k. then add on all the moneys for modification.....plus the fact that you are riding in front of the front wheels instead of on top of them.....talk about a bouncy ride
 
I've seen them in the $50 range occasionaly and running. Anyway, money is not the issue with Robby.

Did you win anything out of Ft. Jackson?
