Well, this should inspire you. Would make an interesting collectable.

Here is a Swedish Army auto (I always thought that they were for the Swedish army, but maybe they were for the Swiss army) . I often wonder if there is army disposal stores in Sweden with heaps of these laying around.

This guy has obviously made a bitsa, by sticking an army auto motor into an '83/'84 frame. Looks cold there , doesn't it ?

I know the original Auto was developed for the Swedish Army. What's curious here is the white star on the tank The white star is normally used by the American Army. I don't know if this was an American Husky or if is just an overly patriotic American restorer ::)
