HMMWVS in the Hobby - Part II: Buying tips

American LaFrance 600-series trucks were the last “conventionals” ALF made. The long hood covered the dual-ignition Lycoming-derived engine V12 gas engine, displacing 491 cid and putting out 190 horsepower, which was very respectable for 1941.

The HMMWV’s body tub, rear fenders and tailgate are made from heat-treated aircraft-quality aluminum, with the panels bonded and then riveted together. The hood is hinged at the front to swing up and away from the windshield, and is made from a composite of fiberglass and plastic.
