The first tank pictured looks as if it could be an original Grant Dozer version, which according to Gary Zimmer, there were only 3 in service! (Grant III (M3A5) No.1 Mk.I dozer - tank fitted with La-Plant Choate M1 dozer blade, Numbers, WD24187, 24143, and 23751). I think, Keith, you will be fending off enquiries now as to this tank's location

Well spotted, Tony!
Now, as to the location... I seem to have forgotten where it was... senior moment I 'spose!

was converted to a bulldozer also. Check the mounting pins on the side and the two torch cut I beams on the front glacis. I would imagine the I beams were for the lifting device.
