if it is indeed a Sentinel made Carrier my father was emplyed making these at the factory at Shrewsbury. He recalls many details about them, so if anyone has any particular question by all means try me and i will ask him. One thing he vividly recalls is the tarmac outside the factory gate. The test drivers used to spin left out of the factory on Harlescott Road and run about 7 miles up to Haughmond Hill and back. The road was completely scuffed up from that first fast left up the road! Every time he sees a Carrier he always looks to see whether it was a Sentinel or not.
