Hi all,
Here are some pictures of the Carrier acquired by Siemon in The Netherlands. He's looking for information to restore it. Writing in English is not his stong point, so I'm posting for him. He can read and speak English though, so please help him out in his quest for Carrier parts and information. Regards, Hanno

There are plenty schematics about for armour now, that is pretty much the most ideal way to get a lower tub....with the centre bulkhead in situ...and air ducts too....i am very jealous ! welcome to the carrier family Siemon ! it is a terminal disease you cant escape its clutches once you have one..

Excellent MKII armour, complete with the welded side supports on the front aperture. The mantle is a wee challenge for the MKII. Hanno, what is the lower and upper hull serial number range? Is it a MKII or MKII* ?
Nice work! Is the armour on the shop floor, (circled in red) originally from the same hull or another MKII/MKII*? M. |
