I have nothing to do with it, and i guess its a typo... but what was it meant to say... 4k might be too less? 40k too much? and 400K... well? (or am i a bit out of touch?- i am 'just' a jeeper after all!)

Interesting none the less. Does anyone know it or of it?

Ian.

Sound like an Australian designed Dingo light armoured car. The chassis no. starting with "MH" could to confirm it is a Ford chassis modified with Marmon-Herrington All Wheel Drive conversion.

The dingo's back, at might appear a much more reasonable price?

Just thought id pass it on for thoes who might be interested. No connection with it.

Cheers, Ian.

Is it? Could be the price was bumped up from $4,000 to $4,400, but I doubt the chassis no was changed from MH0004765 to MH004750. Or did the trading post make yet another typo? No doubt the other Aussie Dingo owners know Keith and his Dingo(s)!

I be blowed, i didnt even notice that Hanno! I just saw dingo, same seller name and such... GHowever wouldnt be the first time theyd stuffed an add up!

Anyway, i guess if someones after one, give Keith a call!

As a side note, there is also a M3 Stuart in victoria unrestored for a decent price... need to check the trading post for it if interested.
