Hi all,
I've made some slight progress with the carrier. With the engine and the gearbox now out of the hull this has given me the opportunity to start fixing the hole in the floor cut by its previous owner to allow easier access to the engine sump. Also, as a PTO was fitted to the gearbox at some time, the gear shift was moved across to the left side of the engine, so remedial work has begun to fix this mess too. I've also managed to finish all the tool locating points on the side of hull.
While out picking in the area recently, I have also made some interesting finds. I believe that tracks and ammo storage bins are from a M3 Grant/Lee, and some interesting looking tow points from a ???? If anyone can help ID, or if your interested in the M3 Grant/Lee parts please let me know. Enjoy the pics.
