finally got started on the strip down, managed to find the WD number (see photos) CT 112596. Its coming apart nicely with no nasty surprises . The hand control for the flame kit is still in place and there is only one section top armour missing which should not to be to hard to fit a new section in. I have pulled together a shopping list of the main items that are missing, i will post on here soon hoping that some of you guys will have some odd parts laying around.

great thread mate, i like the link between yours and richie's grandads it's a nice touch to think the carriers got you and richie in contact with each other all those years later.
i've got a couple of rads aswell if you need them, ones rough and the others worse but it's a start. all the best eddy
