The Army Museum at Beijing, China, harbours a surprising number of US-built AFVs, including three members of the Sherman family. The following photos are featured on Brandon Kunicki's site. (Click on the small pictures below to see the full size originals.)

The Soviet Union was no exception in using tanks as tractors in peacetime. The Russian Battlefield has a page on Lend-Lease Shermans:

The largest private collection of tanks is located in, you guessed it, the USA. Jacques Littlefield's collection at Portola Valley, CA, is known as the Military Vehicle Technology Foundation. 
Bob Moore went to see this collection and took photos of the Sherman family members found there. Have a look at Bob's Miscellaneous Armor Pics for pictures of the AFVs in this amazing collection.
