fantastic !

Shaun is in Suffolk, Kevin is near Lowestoft, Martyn is near Lincoln, Barry near London. All have a number of carriers, then there is Me at Newcastle and Nige up North near Dundee. I am sure there are others but these guys are the ones who have made contact with me.

so plenty folks around on our rock to give a hand if its ever needed.

martyn is simultaneusly rebuilding two carriers together, both severe basket cases, one has been scratch built from a pile of wheels and track, so plenty of skill about to help especially if you ever have cause to fabricate anything.

John if you are on Facebook pm me your email as there are tonnes of pics there of the lads and they're carriers

Default Chev HUA

The one I bought belonged to Bart Vanderveen.I think he wrote an article about finding it . In the second issue of Wheels and Tracks.I should add that I did buy a HUA in with other vehicles from Baptys, the info on the HUA came from Peter Dinely so maybe the one I bought was yours.Does the attched picture look like the one you used to own
