Sexton
Congratulations! And welcome to the gang! You have an interesting choice: Canadian, British or Italian markings? Each one will direct you down a different path for equipment and fittings.
As we know, Canada made Sextons because the Americans were making a lot more Shermans and the factory knew what it was doing. This particular vehicle represents a very quiet part of Canadian military history, when we gave or sold lots of war material to countries like Netherlands, Denmark, Belgium, Portugual and Italy. You know those trivial little things like trucks, rifles and armoured vehicles. A huge quantity of Italian No.4 Long Branch rifles hit the surplus market a few years ago, except all the bolts were mixed up. If you search the forum, there have been extensive postings from another Sexton rebuilder detailing his progress with great photos.
