This unknown military tracked vehicle was at one time converted to a 'tracked truck' and competed in the monster truck circuit.
It was then modified from the belt-line up by Lafayette Specialties in 2004-2006 to look like a Sherman Tank.
The body was assembled using new steel plating and over 140 pounds of welding rod.
This converted tank is now 8 feet wide, 22 feet long, and tips the scale around 30,000 pounds. The rubber pads are around 3/4" thick. The Dobbies were N.O.S. in 2006.
The turret is made of fiberglass, ABS, and steel and has two top hatches, in need of repair. The steel body also has two hatches. The barrel is 4" ABS (Non-firing).
The power plant is a 1969 Chrysler 440 C.I.D. engine rebuilt by Nascar Engines in 2005. It is bored 60 over with new pistons, bearings, cam, and oil pump. It has 10.5-1 comp. pushing 500 H.P. New head gaskets in 2010. This motor has around 35 hours since rebuild.
The engine is matched to a 1969 '727' Chrysler Transmission which turns the original differential with a government rebuilt tag still on it.
This "tank" has been used as an attention getter at our Military Surplus store. You could use it for advertising or get it running again and participate in parades and have a blast.
This unit has been sitting and not ran for 10 years. Now it is time for someone else to enjoy it.
The starting price is low enough that if the buyer wishes, will have tons of room to get the tank running again.
This vehicle is sold "as is - where is". Buyer will be responsible for transport. It will have to winched on to the transport vehicle of the winning bidder or their hired hauler.
Sales tax must be collected if a resident of Illinois otherwise, buyer is responsible for sales tax owed in their state.
Cashier's check, money order, or cash on pickup.
Not not mine but this looks like a GREAT Investment to me. Where’s SF the engine Is a NASCAR.

Maybe the engine and drive train could be used for a project. Aside that moving it will cost a more than the item is worth , I sure hope someone wrote that off on taxes for advertisement . 0
