Default Carrier Retrieval & Restoration Begins!
Hi Guys,

Well, after 4 years of chasing down ghost stories, locating and then negotiating, I was finally able to purchase this carrier today. I've always wanted a carrier of my own since I started on the Huntsville Legion Bren Carrier project. This carrier appears to be a MarkII - it has openings in the rear bulkhead into the exhaust component. Is this correct? Hull# is 16720 but the upper armour has been neatly cut away. The previous owner installed a hydraulic steering system. Luckily, he kept the steering wheel!

I'm to pick it up next week. It is in a cleared field area, close to a road and I should be able to get in there with a tilt & load.

Here are some pictures - comments are always welcome.

Regards, Richard
