Default Carrier 2076

Hi all - only problem I see is that Carrier #2076 belongs to a mate of mine here in South Australia. Might contact the pommy owner to verify Hull Number.

Default Re. Carrier #2076

Just made some quick enquiries. The Carrier was James Swans and it is here in Oz, not the UK.

Hi Bob. So does that mean that it is not for sale?

I guess all things at some time are for sale, (At a price) tracked vehicles are an ideal way of getting rid of any surplus money that you may have put aside for all of those things that according to the wife should be done around the house, parts are now very scarce and thin on the ground hence the reason why we reproduce the parts that we need in our restoration when I could no longer find good wheels with good rubber I bit the bullet so to speak and had a mould made, not cheap as my friend Bob Mosely can tell you,it seems that people at times must have new rubber on their wheels until they are told the price the same goes for new track I am lucky I have new track but when that runs out, I will pay the price and have it cast,it will never get any more availabe as it is now, if you want it, get it cast now or give up the project and restore a Gogomobile, just said in fun, but you are either in the game or out,
Regards to all Ron

Hi Ryan - as far as I am aware it is on the market, but here in Oz not the UK. Sounds like something you are after.

The carrier is on hold at the moment because of the passing of James Swan.
