The Space Hijackers shenanigans pulled at the G20 Summit piqued you're interested in a siege tank of your own? Guess what, there's a BRDM-2 in Volo, IL with your name on it.
The Soviet-era BRDM-2 was built as an amphibious recon vehicle capable of taking light arms fire and shell fragments. It's 14mm armor plated hull is designed for trench crossing and water assaults and the vehicle is capable of a 50 MPH top speed and a 350 mile range. The 140 HP gasoline V8 might seem a bit on the whimpy side, but mated to a proper transmission it'll get you to all the hippy protests in plenty of time.
This one in particular is currently on display at the Volo Auto Museum in Volo, Illinois, done up in Iraqi colors for some reason, The $38,000 asking price will keep the longhairs in their Volkswagens, but if you've got the dough, those patchouli-scented commie-carriers will be flat as a pancake in no time.
