For Sherman, I have Sherman I&II, Sherman III and Sherman V vehicle pamphlets as well Sherman 75mm and 105mm armament pamphlets. I also have them for Stuart, Chaffee, Cromwell, Churchill, Centurion etc. Armoured cars had the same. They are good little books with much practical information and comprehensive stowage lists, generally with line drawings but some have photographs.

Thanks Adrian.
Are the base shop manuals that I have seen different than what you are describing? I have seen those for halftracks, M3 Stuart and one Sherman (which mark I can't recall).
If I am not mistaken are there also not wireless fitting instructions for those vehicles?
