Congratulations Jordan.

I guess the hardwood floors are on hold for a while?!

Default Well done Jordan

Congratulations.

That Otter LRC is a very nice addition to your growing Canadian HMV collection. I look forward to a long MLU Forum build thread like you are doing with the C15A.

Default Dutch Otter

Congrats, Jordan!

Great to see it returning back to the town where it was built. The Dutch have taken good care of her for the past 75 years, please do the same (or better ) for the next 75

Way to go Jordan. I know it's been a long haul for you but well worth it. Like others, I am anxious for the build thread.
Cheers,
Barry

That is one very lucky Otter to come into your very capable hands Jordan and there is no doubt it will be attended to with the utmost of attention to every detail and high degree of carftsmanship. As others have said I am looking forward to the posts of your future work on this project. No doubt at some point you will stumble across pictures of this piece of history in actual wartime service, if ever there was a vehicle that could become a series on the History Channel this is it as this little vehicle has a story that begs to be told, built in Canada, sails across U-Boat infested N.Atlantic, fought in the Second World War, used by ?? post war, then closes the loop by returning to Canada and place of manufacture and restored.
