Tonight, I was flipping through the channels and came across a new episode of Fantasy Factory with Rob Dyrdek. He is using a green Argo 8x8 with tracks. Tune in now to check it out on MTV.
Here is a link to a preview of the show with the Argo "street legal tank" on it: Show Clip - Sneak Peak | Prepped For Survival | Sneak Peek | MTV
Good find, Mike! It looks like an old orange Argo that was painted olive drab and is powered by a Tecumseh OH160. Now, where's our Argo expert, ARGOJIM to tell us the year and model of it?

I missed that it was Orange. It's obvious once you pointed it out. As for year, the intake and slanted slots on the front end make me think it's a 1970's model. The Tecumseh makes it a late 70's? I think I'm in the ballpark?Originally Posted by jpswift1
Edit: I'm just guessing at the year for fun, we'll see if I'm close when one of the Argo experts chime in. I didn't want anyone to take the above information as fact.

I'm not gonna pin a year down but range is 75 to 78 sticks are on the left and so is the fuel tank.
There he is. Thanks, Jim......I was waiting for you to chime in on this.
