Wanted: Cut down T16 carrier

Jon Bradshaw · #1 04-02-17, 22:07

I am looking to source a T16 carrier hull with tracks and suspension but don't need much beyond that. The hull will be made into a reproduction tank, probably a Panzer 1. I am willing to go pretty far to get a carrier hull in good shape. Modifications to the hull are not a problem as long as the hull is sound and the tracks, rear end and suspension are in workable shape. I have several universal carriers available but the guy I am helping find this, would like a T16 for the tiller bar steering.
If you have a T16 hull between Edmonton and South Eastern Ontario and are willing to sell it, let me know your price and send a pic. I am not looking to do a recovery from the woods, so as long as it is ready to be rolled on a trailer then it might be for me.

Is there a "Wanted" option on Kijiji?

I posted this on Kijiji as well and hopefully will find a few options. They are much rarer to my experience then the standard universal carriers. I have one hull already changed into a Vickers model 1936 and another waiting for me to make it into something else. This one is for a friend who has similar ideas.

Anyone out there have a T16 hull to sell? I am still looking for any options, this is me bumping it back to the top.

Hi all; Another option is some of the modern logging equip. I saw a Skidder w tracks that had 5 load wheels and would make a great light/medium tank hull. All diesel and modern chassis. Also loggers used a lot of surplus equipment at one time. Newc
