abandoned U/C carrier

[Snowy]

Wow that LVT-1 is an incredible find, carrier notwithstanding! It's my favourite LVT design. Interesting to see Gordon's photo of the final drive assembly with the 'silent chain' sprocket and the track sprocket. Compare that to the exploded view of it from the TM:



(I have most of the rest of the LVT-1 TM at http://202.63.50.228/gallery2/main.p...g2_itemId=2732 )

PS. I'm in need of a few measurements checked from a real LVT-1 for a 3-view diagram I've done, perhaps you can help me

Also, Ron's idea of floating the carrier out of there sounds good. I'd use plastic sheet, a few tubes of silicone sealant and a pressure can or two of expanding foam to get it watertight. And lash a few 44 gallon drums to the sides for good measure
