Looks great, I know it's been a long time project, that's my next one after I finish my APT. I'll be looking for those old sand shields if you still have them for my Mk1. Been out out of circulation for a few months, lost my Mom Easter Sunday, 82 years still young at heart, I will miss her. The carrier restoration will be a way to to remember her legacy as first as a child of 6 years old in WW2 in 1939 to a Polish refugee after WW2 finally imagrating to Canada in 1950. Eleven years, it's hard to imagine. See you soon! Walde |

Glad it helped you along. As with all of the postings other members have done that helped me along the way to get mine done I thank them as well. Been a while since I have posted here but I did not get it out last year to any events due to weather and other commitments but hoping that this year will be better. I did however get to drive it around my subdivision a few time and have put on 29 miles on the odometer. I did put markings of the south Alberta regiment.
