One of the advantages of having lived in the Ottawa area was the variety of places that vehicles could be found if you looked hard enough. The open base policy meant many a moment of free time was spent swanning around the usual haunts when events were on.

One such quiet event happened up at was now a vacant hangar at CFB Uplands.

97613 was being shown off all bright and clean in its armoured form. As far as I know the LSVW was never envisaged to be anything more than an SMP truck and adding this weight was a serious compromise and the lack of all around performance was to be expected. Note that the brush bar has been removed.

This conversion was done at the DEW facility in Ottawa and with their armour partners. How many were made I don't know.
