[edit] First Armoured Car robbery

Theres currently a speedy deletion of Paul Jaworski but to me this seems like a minorly important fact in the history of the Armoured Car. I've coppied the text of the article here, in case someone can workout how to incorperate it. --Salix alba 02:41, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

Paul Jaworski was the leader of the "Flatheads" gang, who comitted the first armored car robbery on March 11, 1927. The group stole over $100,000 from the armored vehicle in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

The gang was also known for the payroll robbery of the Detroit News business offices in 1928, which lead to the capture or death of most of the gang.

Jaworski was eventually sentenced to death by electrocution for a separate payroll robbery which resulted in a murder in Pennsylvania.

[edit] Mercedes Benz Guard

Mercedes manufactures a civilian armoured versions of its S, E and G classes. Does anyone have enough material to create an entry for them? According to [1] "The B7 Mercedes is sold only to government officials and it is credited with helping protect the life of Eduard Shevardnadze, the president of the remote Republic of Georgia."

There is also the Maybach GuardReply to David Latapie 05:48, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

O.K. that is o.k. But the best and honest factory for armoured cars is Techmo-Carat in Europe. The main-distributor is working in Düsseldorf . They build the most cars up to level B7, look at : www. german-armoured.de . I know the leader of the factory and he says, every year more and more cars are produced for V.I.P. The factory Techmo Carat made Maybach B6, Mercedes Benz W 221 in B 6 or B 7, several pictures are on there website.
