[WTS] Gas Powered 1/3rd Scale WWII Sherman Tank -Sold

[Mytche]

This tank is just cool!  

I was asked to list it here if there is any interest I will facilitate the sale.
Would prefer to make the sale in person if you are in or around Iowa, United States.
(we would be willing to personally deliver it if you are within a long day's driving distance say 500 miles)

The Iowa Aviation Heritage Museum is selling a custom built 1/3rd Scale WWII Sherman Tank.  This was originally used as a prop piece in a WWII re-enactment show. It seats one operator in the turret.

I don't have the exact dimensions, but my best estimates
Length: ~6ft
Width: ~4ft
Weight ~800lbs

I would definitely consider spending BTC55 on this, but how do I ship it to South America.

Sure can!
You sit in it and steer it using the Hydraulically operated treads.

They had a 50 cal. in there for shows and just because it is fun.  But we took it out for sale.
