My T16 Carrier

[andrew honychurch]

Hi Guys. I have just found this wonderful website and forum and must say that I had no idea there was such a superb resource for Carriers available on the internet. I own a T16 which in fact was bought by my father many year ago and is now in need of re restoration. It was a british vehicle that was sourced from the world famous Pounds scrap yard in Portsmouth in about 1978. It is complete other than the rear tool box which I am trying to locate. Does anyone have one or make them? I would welcome your help and advice as I commence the restoration. I dont seem to have any data plates , mind you I am not sure where to look and where I may find a serial number. Perhaps you could point me in the right direction? Just started by acquiring a set of reproduction manuals to get me started, also just had the distributor rebuilt. Another question , the distributor does not have the original cooil on the front. I have been told that one can make the set up look original but run the ignition off a modern cooil hidden away. Anyway, I am pleased to find you guys.
