Pvt Thompson Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Mick, Is that a canadian made sherman? the symbol on the front looks like a Montreal locamotive works stamp. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian Barrell Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Mick, Is that a canadian made sherman? the symbol on the front looks like a Montreal locamotive works stamp. James The logo on the front is the General Steel G in a shield mark. This was the US company that supplied the castings. It can be found on various armoured vehicles, not just Shermans. You are right about it being a Canadian sherman though, it's a Grizzly I, built by Montreal Loco. Now masquerading as a sort of Firefly.

FV601 (R.I.P.) Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 (edited) Well take your pick The last two years at Beltring has seen the Saladin in this pose 2005 it was stripped down on the Friday afternoon after springing a leak in a hydraulic pipe 2006 it was in that condition after the dual power control valve had failed at a show the week previous and the only time I had to carry out the repair was at Beltring. Unfortunately I was unable to get the part needed and I had to put it all back together and low loader it home. However when the old girl is up and running she does a mean turn in the arena. Oh and yes I've hugged it, kicked it, swore at it, stroked it and its only bitten me back twice Edited June 21, 2013 by Marmite!! photo links repaired Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
