Staghound restoration

[chrisdunn]

Help.........I am restoring a canadian T-17 staghound armoured car...I am missing a few key componets. Can any one help...?
I am new to the MLU site forum and am still learning how to use it......thanks Chris Dunn

[Geoff Winnington-Ball (RIP)]

Do you have pics, Chris? And which components are you missing? For that matter, where did you source this beast? We'll do our best to help!

Many thanks Mr Ball.....
I found the stag in the Kitchner area..a Canadian friend of mine told me about a residue vehicle in very poor condition behind a barn. One engine had been removed by cutting out the side!!!!!! I cut the rear section from a residue vehicle in Elora Ont. Reg Hogsen told me of a turret from a ww2 range in Winnipeg...Many thanks to the Manitoba prairie Command I imported the stag in 1997 and have been collecting parts every since. Am in desperate need of turret basket and main gun mount parts...i will post pics asap...Many Thanks

I have access to 2 for piccs/measurments. One is reasonably complete & one has all the upper armour missing. I don't think the owner will sell or break them up unfortunately. Let me know if this is of any use. The turrett basket is complete if you need measurements.
