Default The New Project - No.27 Limber

Hi folks,

heading to the "Gun Park section" I finally recieved the first part of my new project. I know it's not much of what I need, but I like it. Hopefully the rest will arrive soon!

Hi Frankie,

Nice to see you got it home and the trailer was large enough, its looks great.
I think its of British manufacture ,is there a 'C' stamped anywhere on the makers plate.

Merry Christmas !

Rob,
thank you for the info. It has been imported to Europe from Canada years ago.
According to your information I was looking for a trailer 210cm wide. My friend told me he know about one to lend - when I arrived for the trailer one hour before leaving CZ I found it's 179cm wide. So I hoped it will fit - but it didn't - we tried to load it complete but we foud out we have to dismount the shaft.

the drawers seem to be in very good condition, the only I could také of the limber when it was tight on the trailer was 1941 dated.
