Re: M-26
looks great...2 things, 1) The phone box was post ww2, 2) those hooks for towing were also post ww2, the ww2 set up was to put the cable between the 2 tabs and slide some pins through.
just a fyi, I found this out when I built mine.

Re: M-26
The extra ammo boxes on the fenders was also a Korean war feature. But since the model (and tamayas version) are the korean war version: note that the hull front has the two slot blower. Make it a korean war version by adding some marine numbers on the turret sides. There are several pictures on the web showing different numbers.

The tow hooks were on some ww2 pershings as the picture of the destroyed FIREBALL taken in 1945 shows.

Re: M-26
The WW2 Pershing also had tie downs on the fender tops and storage box sides as syou can see in the one Im currently working on.
There were 4 on the front box and 4 on the fender, 8 on the middle box and fender and 6 on the rear box and fender.
