M-60 tank

It has been for sale on various sites for several years.

Now has a price drop. Last time I saw it listed it was 300K. I love seeing that wall of fuel cans around the tank.

They can be demilled to keep Uncle happy and still be drivable, but you need to have your own land to play on. Plan on buying diesel-often. You need 6 identical 6TN batteries, and they all should be replaced at the same time when they get elderly. Oil changes are 99% easier if you pull the entire power-pac (plan about a 30 gallon drum for the engine, plus about 19 gallons for the transmission) - the pac weighs 10,000 Lbs so your 5-ton wrecker will need the stiff-legs deployed. You will need a ground-guide if you move one near buildings, vehicles, or people - they have limited driver visibility.... If you decide to move one, plan on a heavy-hauler who normally hauls construction equipment, except he will have to re-license his trailer for a 110,000+ pound load. When it is loaded, you will have about 6" of track on the trailer, with the rest hanging in mid-air.

Lets face it, anyone who wants an M60 needs to have some spare bucks - LOTS of spare bucks.
