That has got to be one of the ugliest vehicles I've ever laid eyes on!

It's from a super-hero parody film called Mystery Men. The movie-prop vehicle has a fictional name but I can't remember what it is.

Look here Additional description: According to the script, the Herkimer Battle Jitney was “a heavily armored, windowless, soundproof, personnel carrier (designed by the Pentagon in the fifties to take congressmen on battlefield fact finding tours). Overgrown with weeds, home to an extended family of pigeons, its fighting days (if it ever had any) are over.” - See more at: http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2....UZBo110f.dpuf Dr. Heller: "Wait! You have a Herkimer Battle Jitney? That's the finest nonlethal military vehicle ever made!" I'm almost as impressed by I found this out. I clicked on the picture, and got theh option to "search web for similar." And it worked. Uncle Ted PS. Those other replies weren't there when I started this response!

Not too exotic, but a good excuse to reanimate this thread, I hope.
I reckon any surviving examples would have divested themselves of their line charges by mid-2000, but these could still serve in other capacities. https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zon...-the-air-force

My group recently captured a Black Volga. The PCs are uncertain whether to use it, strip it for parts, or set it on fire and roll it into a quarry.
