Project PHOENIX

[Bob Moseley (RIP)]

Hi all
Ever since I saw the images on Keefy's site (click on below) a couple of years ago I've had a hankering to build this. Well after the Peek-A-Boo recovery and another one I am currently doing I should have enough Carrier parts for the rear of the vehicle. There doesn't appear to be much Carrier there other than the wheels, bogies and tracks. What I need now is some information and build plans. Discussions with Keefy suggest the truck was a C-60L with the tracks driven from the Chevrolet differential as opposed to fitting the Carrier Ford one. What I also need, once configuration is confirmed, is the donor truck. Any offers? Who knows, with a bit of luck and assistance, next year is The Year of the Tracked Vehicle, and well it would be great to have this completed for that.

Message to Cliff - mate, mate, when you get back from your seminar how would you like to take on a commission to build this model. With your eye converting pictures to measurments it should be an interesting project.

Optimistic Bob
