Ryan, those are casting numbers, see http://web.inter.nl.net/users/spoels...04/foundry.htm. For serial numbers see http://web.inter.nl.net/users/spoelstra/g104/serial.htm

At the moment I am unsure if my tank is infact a M3 Grant or a M3 Lee as it has no upper hull. I have only been told it was a Grant. Is there any way to tell from the lower hull?

Going by the numbers initially supplied, roughly 33% chance it is a Lee,. Read up on its history here: http://anzacsteel.hobbyvista.com/Arm...les/m3ph_1.htm. It is not really important of course since you are going to resore it as an ARV anyway, eh?

And when can we see you joining the Sherman Register mailing list?
