This is will be an makeover for the Gwinnett Sheriff’s SWAT LAV-150. This particular vehicle has some history, as pointed out in an email I received from a gentleman in Texas who wrote:
“Hi Gerald,
I thought this would interest you.
Your V150 was one that was "captured' in Panama during Just Cause in ‘89, returned to the US at Charleston or Jacksonville, trucked to New York, then trucked to Red River where it was converted to a Detroit engine.
One other from that lot is with the sheriff department in Concord NC.
Cheers…Rory “
Just a little piece of trivia which seems to indicate that this is one LAV-150 that’s quite familiar to the sights and sounds of where action is happening. And as far as action goes…the 1989 United States invasion of Panama, code named “Operation Just Cause” should certainly speak for that

Going to burger drive-ins like Sonic is a lot more fun than groceries. The drivers hatch makes for a great tray and it does fit under the awning, just barely. Going to the dog park is fun, too.
It probably wont go fit most drive thru's when completed...you will see why later
The first thing we do is steam clean inside and out, then chop off everything that we don't need...then steam clean again.

Yes, and I hope to get around to putting together a thread for each of them on this site. At the moment, we are kinda busy and I dont have time to do that yet. However, if you google "wgtactical" you will see up to date links to just about everything we've done here. Really complete ones are on M2HB.net
