"Monster" Jeff has listed a Tucker 1544 on ksl.com. Here's a link:

It looks like a mid seventies machine and obviously has some custom touches. Looking past the paint, graphics and upholstery I wonder how many hours are on it. The odometer showers 10,652, but is it accurate? For the sake of argument, if you assumed an average speed of 5 MPH, that would work out to 2,130 hours.
The grousers look unusual in that it appears there are sections of flat bar welded to the top of each grouser. I wonder why? The carriers have some Tucker idler wheels and some are R & K branded ones, which was what Tucker used in the early days of rubber belted machines.
In my opinion (disclaimer) Jeff tends to embellish the condition of items he is selling, so anything written, or said, I would employ the strategy of Ronald Reagan "Trust but verify".
