Good morning and thankyou for your comments. I am looking forward to corowa myself and let some other collectors have a drive just to experience the difference with a powerfull engine and an auto trans. You don't have to worry about the correct revs for gear changing. You can consentrate on where you're going and enjoy the ride. I know Tony Smith said you can't beat the sound of a side valve but my carrier sounds like an old GT falcon. I'll put some more pics after its all repainted and accesserised which won't take long.
Colin.

Hello everyone.
An Australian pattern 3" mortar carrier 99.5% complete.. Aircraft in the back drop are 1947 devons ( ex N.Z.Airforce) and behind that is Adelaides Edinburgh RAAF base. This is a great place to live. Colin.

Beautiful.. Curious about the two round little "barrels" mounted on the front,engine side.. They look like a double ended 12 volt blower fan for engine cooling..which way do you have the air moving for the engine compartment..??In the front..which would make the front squirrel cage fans suck and the rad fan blow..out into the mortar compartment..or suck from there ..across the engine and out the front.. one way or the other would work..great job..just looking at the engineering..and the trades craft..beauty.. And the engine and transmission engineering..could you expand a little on that.. Fit like glove..!!
