I guess not. Be nice to know where/how they ended up though.

Hello All,

it sold for somewhere between $1000-1600, I put an email bid of 950 on it mostly so the scrappies wouldnt get it, the diff would have been nice though! the other parts also sold, i was told it all went to someone around Lighting ridge.

Regards
Justin.

Hi guys new to the forum. I was the one that bought it. Yes the carrier now lives west of lightning ridge undergoing a full restoration

. Currently replacing plates that have been removed in its life.

On another note, i have a spare bare diff if anyone is interested in swapping for other parts?

Will post pics soon.

Hull number is LPN02A 1824 FORD NSW

Regards, Nathan

Hi Nathan and welcome. Firstly data on your Carrier. It was built under Contract No. MON62 by Ford NSW (Homebush) in 1941/42. The original engine number was 1G6478F with the Army Registration Number (ARN) being C25469.

Of particular interest is that one of our forum members, Justin Pollard, possess a photograph of his grandfather posing with this Carrier during WW2.

You two need to network.

Bob
