Default Bren carrier for sale on Trade Me
Gidday,

I see there is another Bren carrier for sale on Trade Me:

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Antiques-co...-211704182.htm

Lynn - is this the long term resident one in Oamaru we have talked about before?

Cheers

Darryl

Default Carrier for sale on Trade Me
Is this guy kidding or what?????

NZ$ 12000 for that what has he been smoking????

More like $1200.

Let's see....no upper armour, incorrect engine, no radiator, no front bulkhead, no air intake scoop, etc etc etc.

Think he needs to go and have a cup of tea and a nice lie down, then rethink how much he wants for that.

$12000....'Tell him he's dreamin'

Default Ford chassis book
I was being a bit sneaky on this one as I was bidding on it but I didn't win it. The auction is now finished but I thought I'd still share it for reference and such. I'd never seen it before, is it a common manual?

The winner is a forum member, and I haven't seen one of these books before.
Maybe David you could post a few interesting bits from the book?

I've added it to the list of known C8AX numbers. Does that door number look like NZ 25690?

Chassis: XH8448-436
Engine no: FR3864114

This C8AX-594 is well known in the South Island. I hope Rod sells it, but what will tow the Oamaru 25pdr??? The canvas cab roof is unique, but well executed.

And not a blitz but a Bren carrier hull. Needs to be saved before going to scrappers.
