F-550 FORD SNIPER – PROTOTYPE ONE
Warehoused. Rare storage find!
What was the SUV from ‘Fast Five’?
This is the prototype (the first of its kind) the appeared in the movie ‘Fast Five’.
The Gurkha F5 (later renamed F-550 FORD SNIPER) was originally developed in 2005 by Armet Armored Vehicles
By 2009, there were only two snipers produced with different vehicle configurations.
This SNIPER is built from a Ford F-550 Super Duty 4 Wheel Drive Platform and has a V8 6.7L Engine with 400 horsepower.
Weighing in at around 7 tons (with a 5 ton towing capacity), this multipurpose vehicle comes loaded with all the tactical and combat features one would expect from an armoured work-horse.
This is the real deal it goes through bricks walls there’s nothing stopping you to where you need to go.
In fact no one is able to get in either it will take someone 4 to 5 hours to try and make some force of entry
This one-off prototype was hand built with hundreds hours invested over 18 months to fabricate and achieve this custom F-550 FORD SNIPER armoured vehicle.
It is super fun to drive, easy to handle and intimidating to look at. Imagine driving a tank with power steering and when you put your foot down, you feel the blast of toque and power as the turbo kicks-in from this powerful V8 6.7L engine.
There’s no need for a Lamborghini or a Bentley if you’re looking for something different. This attention seeking beast will make you stand out like Dwayne Johnson in Fast Five’.
Currently, this vehicle resides in Spain and is priced to be sold €780,000
In 2017, the second vehicle produced was sold for $699,000 (USD) with no rear door and less functions that are offered in this sale with this first of its kind vehicle.
Please note: This F-550 FORD SNIPER is still virtually brand-new with all original Ford badges, labels and tags. With less than 1,000 km on the odometer, this turn-key purchase is ready to drive and take delivery.
