Carrier Scout Mark 1L
C879 WD No T5329
Date 1939

History
Recovered from original owner in March 2008
Is it Thorneycroft manufactured ?
Seeking tracks, instument panel, parts/ workshop manual, gun mounting, and engine covers .
Was driven onto farm in 1947 following disposal from Nungarin Ordinance Depot.
Engine was removed for use in a farm truck
Has been fitted in-service with Aust pattern road wheels neatly machined to fit the narrow british pattern tracks/ sprockets .
The original side stowage box was recently found in a friends shed along with original gearbox and gearchange linkages.
Some camouflage clearly evident on lower hull.( drab olive/ light stone )
Any pic,s of original rear interior would be appreciated as would stowage diagrams.
Regards
Jim S.
