"Anyone have an idea of the cost for an unrestored Bren Gun Carrier here in Canada?"
If you aren't careful, it'll usually cost you a failed marriage, some of your credit rating, and all of your spare time.

I bought one off ebay last year that was located in Ontario; paid the usual e-bay premium price for mid grade quality. I paid around $8000 US. The nice thing about this one is the majority of the stowage boxes and misc brackets are there, these can really be a challenge to find.
I finally got the hull stripped to it's most basic component, replaced all the rivets which had been cut and replaced with bolts, and started the sandblasting yesterday. Of course, it has now started raining, and will continue to do so for the next couple of days.
