Default New Find

Out on a adventure last week and found another carrier. Not a lot left of it,no engine or transmission just lower hull. Someone modified it to a different engine and welded steel where the armour used to be. Am looking for the owner now to see if it is for sale or not.
Took some pictures and tried to attacg them so hopefully it works.

The solid looking frame on the end makes me think someone was using it as a log skidder, does that fit with where you found it?

It looks like the original tool box bolted to the side ofit. That alone is a great find.

Yes I believe it must have been used as a skidder at one time, it looks like it has been sitting here for some time now. It also has a small blade on the front, just hanging on chains but not lifting means to blade. Not a loy of good parts but parts none the less, after all they are not being made anymore.

Good find, should you acquire it, I would be interested in the tracks, drive train and steering gear. Phil
