Its actually for a wide range of tanks, not just the M3. They were also made
by honeywell Bull I believe, it certainly fits the Stuart, Sherman and M10
series, I suspect most ww2 US tanks. Prices in UK range from £3 up to about
£10 mint and boxed. Although these are the most complex bit of whole
assembly the other bits, the hoder aasy seems dearer and less prolific. I
wonder how many tankers bought these home with them as toys for kids or neat
souveniers?
