Anyone got a list of extant M55 self-propelled guns?

[Not exactly. I have some old photo's of the one at APG:

preservedtanks.com/Typ...oryId=1650

plus from my notes back in the 1980s there were further examples as follows:

2. Fort Chaffee (Arkansas)
3. Letterkenny Depot (Chambersburg, PA)
4. Fort Lewis (Washington)

I believe there are also examples at MVTF and Danbury. Plus I have notes on some M53s, if you're interested in those.]


Edit: Never mind, Rafal has come up trumps:

Didn't see this one listed on any of the above links. Not entirely sure if it's the same thing, but it looks similar. Took the photos 2-3 years ago...

It's on Camp Roberts, near San Luis Obispo, California.

The one in Camp Roberts is listed in the PDF, at page 12. But your picture is better.

Wow - I didn't even notice it because the green is so different in my pictures. Feel free to use my photo.

Here's a bonus picture, from the back...

Anyone know what happened to the M55E1 - is that still around?
