Hi Paul,
Well, you do have a few things to do. First off, CDP tracks are not mandatory. Next, it needs a M34A1 mantlet. After that, some, if not all Grizzlies were built with the low bustle turret without the pistol port. The turret itself needs the opening for the 2-inch bomb thrower in the left front of the turret roof. The turret rear could/should have a British style rectangular stowage box. And finally, since the hulls were cast by General Steel, you would have the General Steel logo cast on to the glacis, no rivets on the lower hull, and the rain trough(?), aka "Grizzly groove" on the rear deck.
