Carls photo appears to be of Bill O'reilleys Stuart.
I am not confident that is an accurate set up. The rear of the hull appears to have the places for the W/T shelf. I also note the Turret in this tank has the fittings on the turret for a basket....I suspect that some "recreation" has been exercised .
My own Stuart had the #19 fitted in the stbd sponson ...the shock mounts still being in place when I first got the hull way back in 1970 .
Pictured Bill's Installation and turret detail and my own radio installation in an M3A1 .
