Cool build. Beeing a bit of an armor novice I have a question. Those racks for the jerry cans and satchels, are those a field modification?

Thank you gentlemen!BorgR3mc0 wrote:Cool build. Beeing a bit of an armor novice I have a question. Those racks for the jerry cans and satchels, are those a field modification?
The racks along the sides of the tank were a modification by the Brits. The rack has fittings which allow a frame work of beams to be mounted. Over this frame
work canvas is spread camouflaging the tank to look like a truck.
Here's a Crusader from the web as an example.

The fender rack was put there for British size POL containers. Photos show that they are usually empty.
