The above posted image's jpg is labeled "tamiya_56043_m551_sheridan_with_option_kit_94be29b 83766935d680cfc0bfbb04087c315ef12" and the model's tracks do have "rubber track pads" in place (see red track rectangle below).
Just guessing at a Tamiya list price of $1600.00 USD and a AAF Museum purchase price in the range of $800.00 to $900.00 plus UPS Insured Delivery Cost. That is what I am budgeting for, anyway.
