What's the story behind the real M4 with the M48-style cupola?

Last year,I was searching for the gun travel locks on Sherman tanks. I came across the real pic on my search. Also,this "small hatch" hull Sherman did not have the 76mm turret. I guess it was just cobbled together from various tanks.

Looking good. Definitely one to spin up the experten when they say it is not so and you prove them wrong with the reference image for your build. Love it !

Man, the full scale original is a heck of a mutant!

I'd love to know its history. Still, I think you did great job replicating it as a ride for the ladies from Resident Evil.

Thank you Jaques.

Just gotta weather her up now.

Apologies to all for being away for awhile.I stripped off the paint,due to messing up the weathering.

Just kidding - looking good, Zod.

Thanks Pyro.

Thankfully,I had another set of the T49 indy Sherman links around.Hopefully,they will not break on me.

General Zod · November 27, 2010, 12:02:01 PM

Hurray for me.

I was able to find another set of the T49 3 bar cleat indy links. This set did not break on me. These are the old RHPS set.Panda Plastics make them now.
