FEATURED VEHICLE

The M-8 Armored Car is more commonly known as the M-8 Greyhound to the British military.  It was produced by Ford in WWII and used by the Americans and British military in Europe and south east Asia.  The M-8 is still being used in many third world countries, thus proving the dependability and sturdiness of the American Automotive Industry of the past.  The M-8 is armored with a 37mm gun on a turret and a .30 cal Browning M1919 machine gun on the top of the turret.  A common modification was another mounted .50 cal M2HB Browning machine gun for anti-aircraft use.  The M-8 had a crew of four, a commander (who also acted as a loader), gunner, driver, and radio operator (who also could drive if needed).  The M-8 carried 80 rounds of 37mm if equipped with one radio.  If equipped with two radios, the M-8 would sometimes carry as few as 16 rounds of 37mm.  The M-8 also carried 1500 rounds of .30 cal ammunition, and with the addition of the .50 cal machine gun, 400 rounds of .50 cal ammunition.  Also in the M-8 were 16 hand grenades, 4 smoke grenades, 6 land mines, and an M1 Carbine for every crewman.  The armor was 3mm thick on the floor, and 19mm thick on the front and turret of the M-8.  The M-8 carried 59 gallons of fuel and averaged 7.5mpg, allowing it to travel up to 400 miles.  The museum put 280 hours and $2300 into the restoration of this M-8, and it came out beautifully.  The M-8 is currently on display at the museum.
