If you are not familiar with Project 440,the test report on the pilot Model Canadian Armoured Tracked Jeep Mark l.
It also is a performance comparison with the M29C Weasle.
I have the original report with over 20 original photos showing weak and failed parts involved in the test and complete specs and measurements in the report.
You can borrow and use it but contact me quick..I'll be out of touch shortly..

Hello Alex

Thank you for the offer.
I originall thought i would include the tracked and armoured jeeps but have come to the conclusion that it is already a great deal of work without even including these. I have seen this information at the National Archives and i believe Clive covered some of this in one of his latest books.

Thanks

Eric

Hello James

There is a whole series of these test GP's at Camp Borden.
Very interesting. It would be nice to find one of these.
