I need to correct several anonomolies in the information posted here, being the owner of Leopard 596 on display at the South African National War Museum in Saxonwold, Johannesburg, South Africa. Firstly, the vehcile on display at Imperial War Museum (North), while complete, is completely athe wrong colour, being repainted by the Museum at some time in the mid to later 1980's.
Secondly, the Leopard was designed and intedned as a civiling land mine resting vehcile while it offered some protections to small arms fire, was not impervious to attacl buy small arms and in particuar the PRG7's then in common use by ZIP{RA or ZANLA forces. The only aramments carried by the vehcile where those carried by the occupants, or alternantely various of the anti-ambush weapons avilable at the time to be fitted to any vehcile, military or civillian.
With the shortage of new vehciles in Rhodesia during the war period, the civillian intended Leopard mine resting vehcile was taken into service by a wide range of government departments, randing from Post and Telecoms, through to the Police with a number of modifications.
The leopard bear only some superficialy resermbalance to the South African Buffel. They are in design and concept, two totaky different vehciles, though both used the deep 'V' hull principle to protect its occupants from the blast of an anti tank land mine. Full details are the Rhodeaian Leopard at the War Museum in Johannesburg are avilable at www.babargwanath.co.za/leopard and pictures thereof may be used with a written credit to the Museum and the owner.
