There's one of those at Paul Allen's warbird and armor museum up near Seattle. Pretty cool machines.

Likely not great gas mileage around town and you'd probably not win many races.

I didn't think of that! I know Lemmy had a huge collection of German WWII stuff but didn't know he had vehicles too.

It wouldn't surprise me if he had one of everything. I remember some interview where he was off driving a tank and fired the cannon a few times. I don't think they disclosed who the owner was though.
