Sherman Dozer
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

That's really cool! Thanks for posting! The guys look like a group of teenagers doing donuts and power slides in the parking lot! Appears to be, literally, tons of fun!

That's terrific. Have never seen a Sherman thrashed like that! Very jealous.

Way cool! Those guys know how to drive that M4, that's for sure. Nice to see a working dozer tank in 2011. We need to get some detailed "high def" walk arounds of that beast posted.

I would bet that M4 doesn't have the original R-975 radial in it. It just doesn't sound right to me. Most likely re-engined with a modern diesel. Also I note some added ventilation to the engine compartment on the top engine access door.

Power slides on a steel track are always a bit easier than on rubber, anyway very nice indeed. P-O At the intro there was mention about le Musee du Genie and its in French and I'm 100% sure its not our musee du genie. I'm guessing that would be the Musee du genie at Angers (only amx13 listed there) . Dataplate shows SN 57123, thats a new sherman to me. Michel
