M8 restoration
Hi James
Thanks for that. I debated keeping some of the holes but in the end decided I might as well fill them in. There are plenty of bullet damage marks on the turret which should tell its story. I figure those bigger holes are from .50 cal or similar. There are even bits of copper still in the holes. There are a lot of lines of smaller dents on the turret which haven't penetrated the steel, from what I figure is lower calibre MG fire.
