The M-3 was my favorite tank because of its prominent role in the "Haunted Tank" comics and it was the easiest tank for me to draw.

Related to the Stuart....V8 powered instead for a radial, if I remember correctly! 
I built one back in the day, late 70's, after been to the cinema watching Race With The Devil, not exactly a movie that you take your 8 year old to....I probably wouldn't even be let in today!
Yip, got one in the stash of the right vintage....1977!

Trip down memory lane...
Me at 12 (at left, with brother Paul and sister Anne) with an M3 Stuart Hybrid outside the Waiouru Army Museum, New Zealand. Pic is dated Feb 2, 1986.
She was gutted inside, and the lower rear plate under the hull was missing, so as kids we could crawl under her, climb in through the empty engine bay, and enter the fighting compartment via the empty transmission cavity. Even as a kid sitting in the driver's seat, I was surprised how small she was inside.
10 years later...
Possibly the same Stuart, modified to represent General Freyberg's command tank (37- mm gun removed to create more space in turret for him, false 'pipe' barrel added to look less conspicuous).
It had been displayed inside for a North African Campaign exhibition I saw in about 1988/89, but had been moved outside by the time of my last visit to the museum (and to New Zealand) in 1996.

All good stuff.
Note that the "Stug III" in Post# 3,783 is a "replica", built on a British AFV432 APC chassis/body.

The AAM routinely runs most of their collection. They have some pretty interesting pieces. I think most, if not all of their German armor are replicas.
