Tanks, but no tanks.

Hah, a VT-55 with a bodykit.

Yeah its been for sale for awhile, they were asking some crazy price awhile ago, $375k I think.

Its a fake so meh, I rather have a T55. Doesn't have any tank coolness inside, and the gun isn't real.

If you brought in a T55 wouldn't they make you decommission the gun?

it's automatic.

I never looked into that, but I do see some pretty nice hardware in private hands....so well see.

Might be able to register it with the BATFE as a destructive device/and or manufacture sample.

For example this 76MM seems to be functioning pretty well.

90mm T8 Cannon Tears a hole in a hillside - YouTube
So does this 90mm

I think its more of a question of how much you want to spend, because this area of military collecting is for very rich men. Ted for example who seems to have a few bucks can't afford to play in this field. Although he did mount an MG42 on his Ferrari...so does that count as an Italian army mechanized support vehicle?

Nope. The late Jacques Littlefield, billionaire tank collector in California, of all places, had about 30 tanks before he died.

On the 4th of July, he would drive one himself over multiple Japanese vehicles.

I worked for over two years on a house in the Portola Valley hills, not too far from his collection. I'd like to finally go visit the place, I didn't know if it was open to the public much back then (this around '02) but I understand it's sort of a museum now:
