Default Hi resolution MK1 carrier pictures

Hi,
I have managed to get hold of some hi resolution carrier pictures taken in 1942, they are pretty detailed and will help with any Mk1 carrier restoration. They didnt come cheap and if anyone wants a copy of them e-mailed to them, just send your e-mail address to kevinpowles@btinternet.com and i will try and batch them together and send.

Interesting note is that the seat cushion appears to be the spring kind as featured in the CMP truck.

I have attached a low res file of what I have.

Cheers Kevin.

Default download address

Hi, just paste this into your address bar and click on save, will take about 5 mins to download :

http://www.all-media-downloads.com/carrier-photos.zip

Jordan, you can zoom in on the pictures, if you zoom in on the driver position photo you will see the hammer marks in the side plate, could well be your lower hull if they match.

Anyone identify the round object laying on the seat cushion left near corner?.

Enjoy kevin.

Hi Kevin

Wonderful pics. Thank you for sharing them

Just a note, my Kaspersky Anti-Virus finds a Trojan if you go directly to http://www.all-media-downloads.com/

Greetings
Chris

Thanks for that. Is that the date, on the air duct armour, in chalk?
