I'm attaching 2 more pics, she is still covered with snow but I think we are to get warmer weather over X-mas, so I can get the serial # verified. I'm getting excited to work on it. She will go in the shop in the spring and won't have to be outside anymore.
The wooden block I hope is original. My MK1 can rest there someday but I was hoping that carriers came with an original permanent mount.
I have some pics of a carrier I saw at the legion last summer, going to post them later, it's just beautiful.
I'm planning to start on the armor pieces first, getting dimensions so I can cut each piece out. I don't have a compressor yet for sandblasting the hull, but I have a big pot.
I'll have to add a steering wheel to the list of parts I need. Wonder if that same wheel was used on trucks of that time period? Phil
