This is a M7B2 Priest mobile howitzer located in my hometown. The B2 was a conversion of the Ford-powered B1 model. The conversion consisted of raising the main gun and 50 cal. by about 12 inches so the howitzer could fire at max. elevation. The original M7 was based on the radial-engined Sherman tank, while the B1/B2 models were based on the M4A3. Stay tuned. As soon as the hornets die in cold weather, I plan to post a detailed video of this vehicle (which I'd love to own and restore) and other WWII stuff.
Where is this?
