M3 Grant

I don't think it is an M3A1 because those had cast upper hulls.  Some M3A1s and all later M3 versions lacked the side doors.

Yep, think it's a Lee.  The Grant had a different upper turret.

Makes ya want to go rent "Sahara" with Humphrey Bogart and Lulu Belle his Lee tank that he won the war single handedly with :)

"Sahara" is a remake of a Soviet 1937 film "Trinadtsat'" ("Thirteen"). It was about Soviet border guards in Turkestan desert, fighting with "basmach" local Moslim gangs. This films look absolutely the same, the only difference is the tank. Attitional intrigue in Soviet film was that they had to  spend water to fill Maxim machine-guns cooling jackets...

Even a dome over the well in "Sahara" looks like in Soviet film...
