Default Truck-Trailer Combination

What a nice LSVW and DEW CDN1 Trailer combination. Preserving the current vehicles is as important as saving those from the war or post-war NATO eras as each vehicle represents a piece of Canada's automotive history.

Thank you Rob , Whayne and Ed. A source for the rifle holders / racks in the cab of the LSVW ? Someone , somewhere along the disposal chain deemed appropriate to literraly tear them out of the floor without unbolting them .... Dangerous piece of kit .

Agreed Ed, and even the lemons should be saved. The LSVW represents the product of political interference in the trials and tendering process. It will have a place in Canada's history right in line with the Ross rifle, the MacAdam shield shovel, and the Canadian Youth Volunteer program.

And the Royer zippered combat boots that come apart after 2 weeks Rob . Lemons come in many forms it seems. I thought the Iltis was your most hated Rob ? I had to tilt the cab of the LSVW to change the starter . 16 man hours !
