M4A3 Sherman restoration (Hull Stripping and cleaning).

Short video showing the final stages of Sherman hull preparation for pressure washing. We gutted it out, repaired some parts, then pressure washed it.

This restoration is being done by the Museum of the American G.I. and Brent Mullins of Mullins Jeep Parts.

My dad always loved the tankers in 44-45 when they let the ground-pounders hitch a ride. My dad said it was a long walk across Europe. Every little bit helped. For some strange reason the Germans did not appreciate him visting at that time. hhmmmm.

A steam cleaner wouls have done a better job on the hull.I used to use one for HGV's and airport fire engines and equipment,a steam cleaner does a fantastic job especially used with detergent,will shift grease and filth inches thick,also whatever you wash dries quicker too.Anyway your doing a grand job there!!

please tell me guys sandblasted this aswell. would be a shame to do all that work pulling it apart to skip on a couple of hundred bucks to sandblast. finish product n paint looks so much better then and you know it will last for another 70 years

Weird, the "Sherman" American tank name sounds Deutsche and the "Tiger" German tank sounds English !

Steam cleaners don't remove rust.
