Many of the 75 armed Shermans here in MN have a 76 or a 90 muzzle brake welded to the end of the gun tube-surprised to see that this one didn't get the "upgrade".
Great find!

What amazes me is the condition of the track....(!?)

It looks brand new.

Don,
There is a M4A3 with DV in Aitkin, MN with perfect track as well.

I knew this machine would turn up sooner or later after MHI lost track of it in 1962....

Anyone near enough to this vehicle to get the serial number and take some good images of the turret & hull sides and rear - particularly looking for signs of fittings that have been removed.
