I always appreciate the great info on this site.
I am pretty sure I know where this unit is going and if so we should be hearing/seeing more as it is restored! Here is a pic of the convoy light dead center on the rear.

Trucking a carrier sounds a lot easier than having to float one on a barge, as done previously, just a guess !

Go to

Yup that is the one.
 I didnt know if it was my place to say anything about the final destination until John chose to do so. I would love to know what his asking price would be though...now that the economy is in its current shape.I know I am hoping the the price of some stuff I need will come back down from the stratosphere it was at. Even plate steel was getting expensive this summer. Scrap iron was fetching over $300/ton in July! Hey maybe I can even afford to replace the stick shift knob!

Seen this one before....
Just to confirm it did come from the Coe Hill yard.... see matching photos...
Was purchased by Jim X from the East coast..... he never did move it and last I heard was trying to sell it..... so he did. Better than staying there to rust. May it find a good home....... The pictures were taken Oct 2005. Boobee

Carrier
It is in my yard and I was pleasantly surprised to see its condition. Better than the one I started with in many respects. I originally bought this to restore it, but I have come to my senses. I currently have more projects than time, and my storage situation has worsened. I bought this back in April and could not find anyone to haul it until last week. Since I purchased it, the storage building picked up a 4 ton Diamond T and an air transportable CCKW. Now it is to full and I have 5 other projects sitting in the wings.
I have had unbelievable interest in this since I posted it on the site. 2 other folks have called and said they saw it on the road and wondered if it was headed my way. John

At the balasters yard at last!!!!!!
Hi,
Finally got the mortar carrier at the blasters yard today, It was fun loading it on the trailer, One of the plastic swivel wheels mounted on the front collapsed, so it was touch and go, will get over there at the weekend to repair it so will take a few pictures.
