Nightrider specifically added to the model name "Not an Abrams" |

I'm afraid that this is something in Patton range. |

then Made for Movie M1 Abrams you can't tell if M47 , M48 or M60 Patton without the turret -- Last edit: 2019-08-29 21:34:37 |

and stupidly you can't see how many spacer wheels it has on top either... M47 M48 M60 -- Last edit: 2019-08-29 21:38:31 |

M60 and M48 is out due to lack of that small additional roller between drive sprocket and roadwheel. So It can be M47 or M46 (why not). |

I'm leaning towards M47, because you can see real turret with parts of optical rangefinder. |

don't want to burst your bubble but early M48 also had them http://www.tanks-encyclopedia.com/coldwar/US/M48_Patton.php but granted this excludes the M60 -- Last edit: 2019-08-29 23:03:52 |

It's turret that matters. Here you can see real one sticking out. After staring at it I'm leanung towards early M48 (not even A1) due to vision block location and simplified commander cupola. |

And, as a true slowpoke, I just realize, that M47 would have driver on the left, not in center. It's an early M48. |

Early M48 is correct. That cupola is called the Chrysler cupola and it was unique to the base model M48. |
