Hi Bruce,

I bought the one without the turret. I prefered it as it was on its original chassis, with gear box and transferbox. The other one was on a C15a or gun tractor chassis and had been cut in front to fit.
About 10 years ago Michel Leloup, owner of the Falaise museum showed me the two Otters and I was told that the one I have now had original wartime damage to the roof and drivers footwell. The big question will be how to restore it and preserve the damage.

Here's my one.

James
