I was one who directed you hear from HMVF Bill. Blow me if someone didn't send me this today. Laying in a ditch in Ireland. But the owner has ideas of restoring it with a brand new crated V8 engine that he's acquired. My friend who sent me the picture tells me that the owner is a dreamer.....So I'm on the case and might know more by Christmas. Ron

Bill,
In December there's an auction running in the USA, with three types of carrier - Universal, Loyd and Windsor - offered at no reserve. HTH, Hanno

The USA auction is all vehicles acquired from the old Victory Museum that was in Luxemburg. Being longtime static displays, I wouldn't expect them to be running or even complete in the engine compartments. But you never can tell.
Certainly would be better project vehicles to start with than what most of us were stuck with when we got the OD armour disease. I like the canvas top that the Windsor carrier has. Link to the forced auction in case anyone isn’t familiar with it: http://www.auctionsamerica.com/event...?SaleCode=MM12
