Thank you Hanno for your as usual, your very informed reply.

I used to live in Sydney which is on the East Coast, but in retirement moved to the West Coast which is about 3000 Kms away.

The LVT is in a award part of Harolds yard, and has proven difficult to photograph. On one side it is completely shielded by a shed. On the front it is shielded by a Matilda tank, which is a goer.

The other side is only about three meters from a building.

However from the rear you can get a clear shot.

I suspect except for the rusty T16. Keith's photo could of the same vehicle, and perhaps it is the same unit, except they have found a T16, since I was last there.

Keith where is your photo taken, if it is at Narrellan, and if that is so, do you have any more photos to share.

Harold the owner used to call it a wading tank, I suspect that was because he did not know any better. The photos on the internet, appear to my untrained eye, to be the same as what Harold has.

Has anyone from Australia been to Harold's, and can clarify what he has.

Thanks

Col Tigwell
