- Doug_KibbeyMORE great pics! Thanks Jeff!
[b]About this...hand crank fuel transfer pump? Never seen one so mounted before. Very interesting detail, especially for a "display vehicle". Comments, Joe D. or Roy?
- Joe_DHi Jeff, Neil,
Here is the million dollar question,,,,,. I am only tracking two other M60A0's with a supposed serial number below 15. I'm saying supposed because the other two examples (Aberdeen, Thurmont) serial numbers are based on a number Bob found on the front slope that isn't a known location for them and an information sheet Neil has that is put out by the Aberdeen Museum. No actual number has been seen in the traditional area (Left Tow Lug or Left Rear hull below deck) to my knowledge.
Were the first 15 made with bad armor never numbered as the operational ones were and possibly those started with Dot 1 ?????
Maybe this Dot 10 isn't so special or they did a really good job of grinding off the "Training Tank Only" Weld. The answer might be found if we could gain access to the Data Plate of the Aberdeen or Thurmont M60A0's.
Something to ponder,
Joe D
