Probably an M15 with M16 rear armor since the 16's all had winches, supposedly.

I like the look. What I've wondered is if the first few M13's were roller models. There is a picture of one in the Ord-9.

Hi Steve,
I've just never seen a period photo of an M-16 with a roller. I thought I had seen somewhere a reference to all the M-16's being winch equipped. So far I've seen two 16's in collectors hands with rollers including this one. One i tried to buy unsuccessfully but never got a personal look at it to see if it was original to the vehicle.

Andy, I'm in SW Michigan. To the best of my knowledge it's all good. It has all the handles and such. Turning the shaft make's the drum go around, but I have not hooked it up and pulled with it.
