i know of a carrier purchased in Toronto a three years back, Mk1 i think.. was chopped but lower hull was very complete with good drive line cost the chap £3000 GBP to purchase and return it to his garage, that includes freight and duties. But with these things price fluctuates massively, bearing in mind a few years back folk still had money to spend. if this carrier is to go up for sale i would give the following humble advice
1) A dealer will always offer you less than a private sale.
2) Europe will command a higher price than the US or Canadian sales.
3) If you are selling over seas advertise it on Milweb.net perhaps offer a package to get the unit to a specific port in with the price as long as the unit is sold within a specific time frame.
4) dont be pursuaded to break the hull and sell the spares you will end up with a tub minus its wheels and tracks and selling the other bits could take some time.
