One fender came with the vehicle. It can be repaired, and used as a pattern for the missing one. All the storage bins were present, and in need of repair. David's comments on the engine doors makes good sense. Installed the engine yesterday. We hope to be driving it this week. Jesse.

To answer Gords question, I certainly hope so!!

Great work Jesse, although I am a little envious (and embarrassed) at the progress you have made in a short time. I am just finishing disassembling the C4, hopefully in a couple of months it will be ready to drop back in. My hull is all finished, except for the upholstery. I saved the biggest job for last! A note on the door paint. When I was stripping the hull, there was only evidence of white paint on the rear and upper engine door interiors.

It lives again. The second video is mostly poor, but has good sound. Don't watch if you get sea sick. Jesse.

About the topic on the white doors , the 4 Shermans that I am working on all have the doors painted white inside , only the Early Lima build M4A1 has O.D. paint under the white . all others just white , there are also no traces of any primer under the white paint. The white paint in all of them is Matt .

With the half track at this years first event in Highland Indiana. A lot of work left to be done, but at least now we can have fun with it. If you want to get peoples attention, just start-up a radial. No time to take video. We were short-handed as it was. Jesse. **NOTE*** 8-6-17 The owner of the Tiger and myself are both disabled now. we were both rear ended in seperate accidents by no license, no insurance, intoxicated drivers. I was fortunate. Mike's in real bad shape.
