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.

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.
