I would like to build a model of the T-49 tank destroyer prototype. does anyone know of any plans, drawings or photos other than what is in the Hunnicutt volume on the Stuart tank series?

Thanks

Another option, if an odd one, is to get someone who plays World of Tanks to take some garage screenshots of a stock T49; it's a tier-III US tank destroyer in the game, and they'd be able to pan around the vehicle to give you a view from almost any angle you wanted. I'd put up a sample (I've got a T49 in my garage), but I'm at work right now.

Makes you wonder how they got the info in WOT when there is next to nothing on the web.

a) The web is not the only place to get information. It could be in an obscure book not availabele online.

b) there could be no information actually available, in which case they made it up. Which is why WoT can't EVER be used as a reference.
