Mark you could be right about this. I had another good look over the weekend and the 1 could in fact be a 4. With quite a bit of the paint missing it is difficult to 100% sure but it would mean a vehicle from 32nd Reconnaissance Regiment the Royal Montreal Regiment. There are the remains of the First Canadian Army marking on the front plate also, I attach a photo.

Richie I also found the hull number on the back where you said it would be. The number is 457.

Phill I will get you some drawings for the airfilter.

Eddy I will get in touch about the radiator armour because I am going to need some made up.

Cheers

Paul
