Default Cambridge Carrier

Hi Guys:

The Swords and Ploughshares Museum has what we believe to be the only example of the Cambridge Carrier that was exported to Canada.

It is the Artillery OP version and was shipped over for trials. Unfortunately the transmission is trash and the upper armour is all gone. We hope someday to replicate the armour and may have to put in a North American transmission and engine in order to get it going.

For those not familiar with it, the Cambridge was the next step from the Oxford to the FV432. It looks like a short 432 (only four roadwheels) with the B80 engine in the back.

Once I find some photos I'll post them.

Cheers, Mike
