The thing on top looks like a turret because it does not look like the gun has the free range to be pointed straight up. It looks similar to the AA gun setups used by the Germans. I have seen that design on the front of the plate around the gun (flanges) before but cant seem to locate it. Will keep looking.<br /><br />NEMO.CaptianNemohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18276525826633146549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-803236411311363895.post-50918221883663642822013-05-02T01:10:29.396+02:002013-05-02T01:10:29.396+02:00Anything?Anything?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-803236411311363895.post-86205726304084295022013-05-01T18:47:56.888+02:002013-05-01T18:47:56.888+02:00In that last picture, what is that chassis in fron...In that last picture, what is that chassis in front of the converted Grille?
