The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Hi All,

We had the good fortune of attending the 2017 MVPA Convention in the former Cleveland Tank Plant. We had a blast meeting old friends, making new ones, and running about photographing like mad. Lots of great vehicles of all shapes and sizes - even a few lovely vintage aircraft!

A very pleasant surprise was a chance to see and photograph the Allen County Historical Society M4A3(76) HVSS. Couldn’t get a SN - sorry.

Enjoy these teasers - check out the entire gallery!

That M42 is recognizable.

I tried to get a serial off of the Allen County M4A3(76)HVSS - I think it's 62956. That's the number I photographed on the upper right glacis, just under the tow lug: Allen County M4A3E8 Serial by scottosaurus, on Flickr It was a pleasure to meet you there, Vagabond, and thanks for posting some great photos of the show! Cheers, Scott

I think that's the Chrysler-Plymouth internal number for the hull. The CP number below that is sort of a serial. goo.gl/photos/qbaDJsPygubk4aUW7 Scott, did you get a shot of the glacis/differential housing joint? KL
