What I would like to know is if there's anyone out there with pictures of what the interior looked like, and how the various bits and pieces were stowed.

Hi Stef,

Great find!

The radial engine is definitely a post-war modification. The Chrysler multi-bank is actually a better engine, but near impossible to find these days. So you'd better stick to the Continental.

As for some interior pictures see, Sherman restoration and follow the link.

Also try the Sherman Register mailing list - http://groups.yahoo.com/group/G104 - there are many knowledgeable people there, too.

Good luck!
