Hi Dan,

If you can read French, there is a book called 'L'Armored car Ford M8-M20', by Patrick Sarrazin that has some good historic photos of the internal layout of the M8 and M20.

Is there any particular area of the hull or turret you are interested in? I've saved a lot of photos of the M8 and M20 over the years and might have a few that will help.

Yahoo group for M8 enthusiasts. Interior photos can be found there.

Hi Dan

I don't know whether Amazon will have it. Try here:

I purchased Patrick's book about two years ago. The photos in the book would have been useful except that the printing was poor, which obscured the details.

I wrote Patrick asking if I could buy copies of the originals, he was happy to take my money by PayPal, but never sent the photos. Numerous follow-up emails went unanswered.

So, I would hope that this story will make people think twice before purchasing any of Sarrazin's books.

Dan, I've managed to collect a number of good M8 interior photos since then. Send me a PM and I'll share them with you. Are you restoring an M8?

Hi Bill

That's not good. I'd be a bit grumpy about that as well.
