Default Pacific vehicles

There were three 'Shermans' used in the production. They were all in fact Grants that had been extensively modified with the upper hull removed and replaced with sheet metal over a tubular steel framework. The turrets were constructed of fibreglass and all three were re-powered with Cummins engines.
One of the tanks had been built up for use in a movie some years ago and was purchased as an intact unit. Two of them were purchased as hulls and built up for use in this series.
