heres the other half of the enlarged sherman build
The idea behind the build was just to see what an enlarged sherman would look like
with 8 wheeled HVSS suspension and a big gun
the engine would be a Ford GAC V12 770 HP
or a Wright 800 hp 9 cyl radial could be fitted
ive enjoyed the build and hsve since applied a base coat on boyh of them
all comments welcome
regards andrew

NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!

It looks "Hitlerized". That is , make it bigger, badder and better than anything we currently have - ala the E-100

Hey Andrew,
This one sure looks like the "improved" M4 sketch in the Hunnicutt Sherman book, all be it bigger, longer, better armed and definitely tougher looking !
It certainly looks like a M4A3 on steroids !!
Looking forward to the finished build !!!
Cheers
