Probably not on the register, was in private hands up here. Now in CA I think, but not at Littlefield's.

I believe that's an A3 with the 4th generation hull. Joe D. will see stuff I'm overlooking at first glance, though.

I have more pics of this machine if anyone wants more interior shots.

M60A1.

When were these pics taken? Do the bottom set of numbers on the stowage bins read "21405"? If so, Joe Garbarino in San Rafael has it.

Former USMC M60A1,

By the looks a 7000 series. Marine A1's had the same opening on the left rear turret as the A3's did for a wind sensor. They could mount an antenna base on theirs which requires 4 bolts. A3 turrets would have a three bolt opening. One way to tell between the two when the wind sensor is removed.

Went back and looked through my pics. Yes, the numbers match. Joe G must be its owner now. He is lucky. That was one sweet machine with an absolute TON of spares. The former owner was quite notorious for getting ahold of those "how in the world did you ever get that?" kinda vehicles.
