She is an elusive one for sure...luckily a guy that works at Cobberton who own the "stunt double" sent me a lot of info on the other one used including this pic taken on set...as you can see she was actually a stretched a4 but as these werent used by the US army Ive done mine as an a3....

I see your point Frankie...got one question for you...the distance between the last bogie and the idler...longer on the stretched variant or the same as the normal Sherman

Not sure on that one...according to the George Bradford plans it's the same, but they're not always the most accurate...
