I think I have the details here somewhere.  Give me a little time to dig up the info.

I don't have the details immediately available (the book with them is still packed away "somewhere").  I do, though, have one of the old ITC 1/24 kits of it.  The only other kit I know of it is a small one by Nitto.

Analyzing some drawings and using M48 turret as a reference, I think T95 hull is approx as long as M48's one.

I have the complete details here (along with some good line drawings).  Using a combination of both you should be able to get enough info.

Here are some details for the T95E6:

Length (Gun Forward): 426.1 inches
Length (without Gun):  275.5 inches - I would tend to read this as hull length
Width (over tracks):  124.0 inches
Height (over cupola periscope guard): 115.0 inches

Can give you more details if you want.

What I've always noticed about the US T95 is how closely the hull resembles the T-55.
