| Wifey & I finally got around to crossing the border & going Stateside again - after a two year hiatus since covid began. Today, we saw this M60 at the Veteran's Memorial at the Town Hall in Wheatfield, NY and took a couple pics. For those interested...

| M60 is so much nicer looking than a Pershing... |

| There are quite a few M60's at various American Legions in the area. They have several configurations and are in varying conditions. I believe the one in my town even runs still. They keep a stainless pan under it to catch the oil. I'll try to get pics as I can. But. I like the Pershing profile better.

| Love the M60s, even the Starship A2. I have ordered one from Carson at DKLM since the beginning pf pandemic still waiting for them to open up regular airmail. Refused to pay courier charging $350 USD to ship to Canada. |

Thanks for sharing these, Shoveler! I think the M60 looks good in that camo scheme, even if a little weather-beaten. Congrats on your new job, btw. I think the west coast rocks - been to Portland, OR, a couple of times & just got back from Vancouver, BC, a couple weeks ago. |

| There are quite a few vehicles at the East Aurora American Legion. I know the M113 they have still ran and moved a few years ago. They have a UH-1H on a pedestal that I even did some tin work on before it was hung. That bird had an interesting story. Ha haa.
I'll try to get a pic of two of the M60 at the Arcade Legion before I go.
