That price is pretty steep for a wreck like that. You can find a statically restored one for sale in Ireland for $220K

Who cares what the guy is asking? I thought it is an interesting link to post, has some interesting photos of parts of the machine that
might be useful to us modelers. Like anything the seller can ask for whatever they want. I'd be more concerned about the legitimacy

Thedrive.com is about to auction off an M4 A1 grizzly. I'll be checking back later to see how much it went for. I thought it said the estimate was $300,000, but that sounds kind of low because this tank is in really, really good shape.

I thought that auction ended last November with the high bid of $480,000 not meeting the reserve the seller put on it?
