Why the German markings on a Sherman chassis? Was it captured and used by the Germans?

The West German army used it up to the mid 50's.

Exactly what I was thinking...

Tibor could put a Nickey tuned LS motor in it...XM Sat radio, heated seats, alloys and a/c...sounds like a plan <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif

Nope.All original and he's only asking 16K.When I first saw the pic I thought it was a Diecast.

I'm not buying the all original thing. The seat has been redone...steering has been painted.... all the exterior trim ..bumpers...etc... have all been repainted.... the air cleaner is not original.....

You guys are probably right.I'm just going by what the guy emailed to me when I asked him if it was restored.


&quot;Thanks, all original and almost new, 16K OBO&quot;

Can anyone use a 1952 Dodge Deuce and a Half? A lady at work has one sitting in her yard, a present left behind by her ex-hubby. She wants it gone. I think she wants $3,000 for it, including spare engine and other stuff. It runs and drives. Used in parades and other events.

Anyone have any recommendations on where to offer it for sale?
