2-door with armored top/doors? Help with different variants

Post by CBRMetalworks » Tue Dec 22, 2015 5:41 pm

I have a HMMWV that I want to make a 2-door truck (or with half-doors that open on the rear possibly), but I want to uparmor it as much as possible. I have a pair of armored doors (not X-doors), and a windshield frame for bulletproof glass, but I don't have anything else. The doors I have are 'bent' to contour to the body, they are not the newer version flat doors. What I am wondering is if there is a top I can find that would work for this, or if I will have to make one.

You're essentially wanting an M1152, however, there's also an armored 2 person cab setup for the Avenger Missile System HMMWV.

The bent doors are one of the middle FRAG kits IIRC, someone has one done up that way either here or on the other OD Green background forum.

Some shelter carriers had an armored two man cab. An ebay seller in Wisconsin has pics of the shelter (for sale) on the truck. Ted's M1152 build shows one too.
