It seems that what I had been told by the late owners son is all true,
Thanks for your interest and help,
are there any? or many of these tanks that have survived ?

Hi Ron,
Yes! Another MH part. Could we ask you politely to save the add-on from the carrier hull remains too? I'm sure there is someone who has an interest in these MH parts. As far as I know, none of the Two Man tanks survived complete. Marmon Herrington historian Don Chew, Brighton, Colorado, USA, owns (or used to own) a lower hull. Reportedly, there are some (parts of scrapped ones) remaining in Surinam.
Some of the Three and Four man tanks did survive in South America, a couple of them ended up in the hands of collectors in the USA.
Lynn, I don't think the drive sprockets are from the tank. See the pic below to see what they looked like.
Regards,
Hanno'
