Ropkey Armour Museum
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Hi Folks! Hi Mike! Sorry, no idea what that one is. First time I think I have seen that buggy. As for Buggies, don't know which other one you are talking about. Sgt, Scouts Out. _________________ "You can never have too much reconnaissance." General G.S. Patton Jr.

Mike Haines

According to Hunnicutt, these are Teledyne Continental Motors' FAV candidate vehicles. They were evaluated back in 1982 by the 9th ID at Fort Lewis as part of a program to test equipment suitable for light divisions.
It was also mentioned in passing here.
