Default Sherman Firefly Ic 1st Hussars

Hello Armour Guys
I hang around the Wireless Section most of the time. But, once in a while I do mess around with tanks and AFV, Canadian mostly.

Anyways here is my Sherman Firefly Ic 1st Hussars, 2nd Armoured Brigade 1944/45 ETO .

why is the track spanner on the rear plate ? usually it is mounted on the left hand fuel tank side .Usually all commonwealth sermons only had the starting handle on the rear .
And 3 piece final drive is also not factory fitted , so field mod ?
Good looking model .

Another comment , the air scoops /ventilators on top of the fuel tanks should be the other way round , only on flails they were this way round , to prevent the soil swept up by the flail landing in to them .
