Sure does walk like a duck etc.
Let it be known that I get the shits when people try to be smart asses and be vending in some shape or form without the decorum to go about it the right way.
Mr Glenn, there is a members for sale section in this forum that is the correct place to put things like this, and there was no need to BS about it.
Shift your tank to the for sale section, and quickly.

Nice tank, too bad I would never buy from a person who engages in such shenanigans. Good catch Tom...

Hmmm. shitty practice if you ask me. Id avoid even if it was the last tank for sale in the UK.
Anyway, A Firefly with HVSS suspension?
Really?
According to my knowledge and a quick check to confirm thare was never a WW2 British firefly with HVSS suspension.
The only 2 types i know of in British service were:
Sherman IBY M4 with 105 mm howitzer with HVVS
Sherman IIIAY M4A2 with 76mm gun and HVVS
The nearest i think would be a Sherman Firefly 1C which is based on the M4 chassis but not using the HVSS.
I am not sure what kind of Sherman this is trying to be, but sticking a long barrel on an M4 or M4a3 does not make it a Firefly.

Hi Swamprat You missed the wrong markings for Firefly, wrong front angle, wrong hatch on turret (should be square) wrong angle at back of turret also about an inch short in over all length ,as well as the bits you said.It should look similar to this.(even this is not perfect)
