Thanks The M4A1E8 is an M4A1 76mm armed Sherman that had the HVSS put onto it Nobody knows for sure if the U.S. ever used it in combat or post war use I do know the Israelis used them in combat

I'm not sure what kind of markings I will put on it yet

Thank you generalzod ! The pics are great. Yes, tt seems to be a M4A1 76W HVSS. IŽve seen a couple of pics of that version somwhere in the www. IŽll search for them and post them here. I think that is a tank - monument placed in France.
