Default Huntsville Legion Carrier Update

Guys,

I finally got around to putting together a short YouTube video summarizing the 2nd half of our restoration of the Huntsville Royal Canadian Legion MkII 1944 Carrier. We are still working on replacing the "plywood" frontal armour pieces. Hopefully, we will have it "finished" - a relative term when it comes to carriers - sometime this summer. It is kind of nice to look at on a snowy, still wintry day here in central Ontario.

Enjoy!

Excellent job guys another one brought back from a rusty grave ! How does she drive, have you had any issues with the track ? I only ask as my carriers track leans like yours does and I was worried about running problems.
