Les, living in Canada must give one a different outlook on some things. I just can't grasp thinking of the Vanguard as being bulky. There must have been quite a change in military minds between WW2 and the 1950s too. If my C8 is 8 cwt then how can the Vanguard be 12 cwt?
We towed it home yesterday behind an old 1966 Mercury pickup. Onlookers must have thought it was the Clampetts moving in.
