Spare Parts
 
Hi Ron - you keep coming up trumps. I don't suppose you have a spare Carrier differential? Guy popped up tonight looking for one.

Or anyone for that matter.

Spare Diff
 
Hello Bob,
No sorry mate i dont have one, if I did it would be yours.
Many thanks for the information on my last two carriers. I really like the way that you share any information that you have,after all thats what our hobby is all about, thanks again Regards Ron

Carrier parts
 
Hi Richard,
Yes it was quite a nice little haul, I might add it took me over 30 years since I got the location to finally get the bits and pieces and the 2 carriers, I am on the track of annother couple, just hope that it wont take quite so long to get them, I reckon that I might be running a bit short on time,
Your carrier is looking great Regards Ron
