Text in original Preserved Tanks In USA publication:

This vehicle was acquired by the museum from the Armor and Engineer Board in April 1977. It remained for many years on display in front of their building (number 1109B) beside Sixth Street (on display nearby was an XM9, USA 8C8468, a prototype of the M9 Universal Engineer Tractor).
On 4 August 2010 it was moved to Richardson Motor Pool, and it was opened and examined on 6 August 2010. It was found that most of the internal components are missing, including the main gun; the barrel is welded in place. There are handwritten notes throughout the interior turret area that appear to have been left over by the test/evaluation teams. There is no vehicle data plate, and there appears to be a 55 gallon drum in the engine compartment so it is assumed there is no power pack. (Source: D. Moriarty).
