Pibwl ◊ 2010-05-18 22:58	This isn't Ford M4A3 (Ford produced only early A3 with dry stowage), but most probably Chrysler M4A3 with 76 mm gun and wet stowage (Chrysler built 8 times more of this variant, than Fisher). Details of gun and turret aren't well visible, but it's not Ford anyway. -- Last edit: 2010-05-18 22:59:46

mike962 ◊ 2024-11-01 11:39	same on the right
mike962 ◊ 2024-11-01 11:42	it's likely one of those post WW2 upgrades based on the A3 or A2, A3 more likely -- Last edit: 2024-11-01 11:43:02
