Default Firefly

Hi Guys, I have been through the inside of this vehicle and it is in very good condition and complete , no engine, it does have the ammo bin in the bow gunner's position, last time I looked was about 6-7 years ago , the school that had it did manage to do some damage to the vehicle ,( sand shield brackets at the rear), other than that I'm sure some small bits went missing , I wish Borden would stop sand blasting these vehicles without looking for markings in the layers of paint and losing all the history , ie the Panther now in Ottawa, great job but no unit history , somewhere there should be a test report file for this vehicle with photos as I'm sure there would have been files for all the items that Farley Mowat gathered and were shipped back for testing,
