More pictures of the carriers
Iīm glad you liked the pictures, Ryan, Richard and David!!! Thatīs great. You are the experts!!!
This scrapyard (located in the argentine province of Mendoza, next to the Andes mountains) used to have twenty T16-E2 UCs. Many of them donīt have the engine or transmission, however, they were absolutely complete and most were running when bought at auction in 1981, all in one lot.
Over the years, many of the Ford V8 flathead engines were sold to power old trucks still in use. A pity.
There are still seven there. As I said before, I brought one home as a donor (complete with engine and tranny), with tracks apart and not installed. I have another T16-E2 mostly complete, ex-Argentine Army for restoring.
Here are some other pics. More will follow. Hope you enjoy.
