Wow, that's fantastic, thank you Lynn for all the hard work. It's great to see some original pictures, including the size and position of the T Number. Mr Watson certainly had to put a lot of work into her. I'm sorry to hear that he is no longer with us. I can now put his picture with all the others I have taken in pride of place at the start if its restoration journey.

There is some evidence of welding around the front plate. I had assumed that a section had been cut out to improve visibility for post war use, and the original piece welded back in, but it could be that the whole plate has come from a second Carrier and would explain the confusion around numbers.

I'm assuming then that ours came from a contract that was supplied direct from Canada to NZ?
