Default Ferret Part

Sold to an instantaneous response. That's the only way to get the goodies.

Treadhead - there are plenty of Carriers around in various conditions. Depends what you want and what you want to spend.

I'm after a Carrier such as the one in the image (but with tracks), A Carrier modified with the Differential mounted on the front would be better.


It's not for a Carrier restoration back to an original state, this is for quite a different project & I'm loath to cut a complete or near complete Carrier, There are already too few vehicles of historic significance.

As for price, I'm open.
cheers

For the record, the project I have in mind for a Carrier Chassis, is NOT for a Panzer I, Panzer II or a Vickers, Nor for a US, French, Italian, Russian or Japanese vehicle.
cheers.

Hi Col and welcome to the forum. You must be a nice bloke with a name like that. What type of project are you going to do, or is still top secret yet.
If you want one with the diff at the front, might I have a guess and say a scale leapard or centurion. What about a 1/3 scale LVT. That would be interesting for corowa next year. What do you think Ron, he'd have plenty of time to squeeze one of them in before march 09. I don't mind a bit of a challenge myself, and don't forget Col, just yell for help.
regards

Trying to aspire to be the person my cats think I am.

Not top secret, I'd just rather leave it until the project was well advanced, no point in naming it for the project to become stillborn, It's definitely WWII though.

I'm also in the middle of restoring a 1938 Zundapp DB 250 motorcycle, 1 of only 2 known, the other is in South America.

There were only 2500 DB 250's made before civilian production was abandoned to the 500, 600 & 800's for military production.
