It is number 77212 or the 212th of 245 built in 1943. It is 98% complete, only missing the gun hatch which is about 9" X 4.5". If you have one I am sure Rob L. would be interested.
A 'B' double arrived and a crane organized to load it and off it went yesterday.
I expected a Framma crane but there was another crane in the area on Monday, so they used it, a 30tonner. A bit of an overkill,hey!
