These next 5 Pics are of the South Aus carrier. I do not intend to keep this one, as I already have one of these, so its looking for a new home, by the way it needs a needs floor it had about three inches of dirt in it when I picked it up and its bugered the floor,

Hi Ron - you keep coming up trumps. I don't suppose you have a spare Carrier differential? Guy popped up tonight looking for one.

Or anyone for that matter.

Hello Bob,
No sorry mate i dont have one, if I did it would be yours.
Many thanks for the information on my last two carriers. I really like the way that you share any information that you have,after all thats what our hobby is all about, thanks again Regards Ron

Hi Richard,
Yes it was quite a nice little haul, I might add it took me over 30 years since I got the location to finally get the bits and pieces and the 2 carriers, I am on the track of annother couple, just hope that it wont take quite so long to get them, I reckon that I might be running a bit short on time,
Your carrier is looking great Regards Ron
