Carbon Hill AL M4A3E2 Jumbo (Yes it is)
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.

Trevor, I still find some that way here in the States, but it requires access to military installations and treading lightly, since there is on occasion UXO around. I will be posting many of the Jumbo pictures tonight in a Photo Bucket folder. Please be patient. Now I wonder if there are any more "Shermans in Jumbo Clothing" lurking around Alabama. _________________ Joe_D

Great pictures, Joe! It's certainly refreshing for a 'new' and rare tank to be found like this, and reminds us that there's still more out there waiting for us. _________________ Trevor Dr Trevor Larkum Preserved Tanks: PreservedTanks.com Armour Archive: ArmourArchive.co.uk EVs

Here is a 'graphic' for currently existing M4A3E2 'Jumbos' that I have 'thrown' together: UPDATE:2 I hope to be able to add to this as I can get some confirmation information on a couple of the vehicles. Don

What a find, thanks Alf and Joe Don The Brussels Jumbo has serial 50511 and the registration should be 3083108( if I calculated right), turret number is indeed 188. It still has the registration of Cobra King on it (Not my fault!!). There are plans to get her restored to operational state. Michel
