A Firefly without a gun is just another Sherman. 60K is actually not bad at all I would think. |

I was going to go for it after reading the headline, but the post tells me the gun is missing and that would just look ridiculous in the driveway. |

$90 USDk inc engine and clutch – tempting as you would always be able to get / create a parking space… |

Sigh. Too late now. I wanted one when I was quartered on Fort Myer and working in the Pentagon. The commute was so short that the mileage wouldn't have been a problem, and a medium tank is just what you need for merging into traffic and changing lanes on I-95. |

You could buy the engine and tranny and drive it back… |

"You could buy the engine and tranny and drive it back…" But if you didn't live in the Americas you have to get the DD fittings as well… |

Yep, great for the morning commute through the traffic congestion. LOL John Armatys |

I don't mind the missing engine. It would be fun to rebuild it as an electric vehicle. But you need the gun for appearances sake. I guess I could just weld on a big piece of 4: pipe, but I think people would be able to tell. |

Just like when buying on ebay, simply wait and another one will show up that's better and cheaper… ;-) |

It would take quite a lot of Vallejo Russian Uniform to cover it. |

A bit of T-Cut and she'll be good as new! |

Ah, man, you don't need a gun. Just put a piece of pipe on it and people will think you've got, like, maybe a 90mm. YouTube link |
