This isn't the first one of these that I've seen....It's actually the second. There was another one with a '40s/'50s panel van body mounted on it that was in use back in the 1980s. Like Adrian pointed out, it's not a Stuart but an M4 HST (High Speed Tractor).

 

Up until a few years ago HSTs were rather easy to come by & cheap to buy. There were several within a 100 mile radious of my house. Like all things, scrap went high, interest in them also elevated and now they are more difficult to come buy but for someone who wants a "tank" -er tracked vehicle, they represent good value (& headache) for the dollar. A fraction of the purchase price of an actual M4 Sherman....
