I was reading Kirk's note that he posted with interest. It seems my #777 wreck, which is missing the data plate came from Brighton, Ontario. I run into a chap at the recent Coe Hill meet, Frank Von Rosensteil, who answered a lot of questions I had on tanks, as I would like to acquire one. His knowledge on armor was impressive and he soon asked what I had. When I mentioned the rusty #777 carrier hull with the floor rotted out, he knew exactly where it came from. The carrier apparently started near or at a trailer park in Brighton. I can't remember exactly who owned it but it went west toward Toronto and 2 owners later, Dan McCaw bought it and brought it back to Coe Hill. Bit and pieces have disappeared off it all along the way. Wonder if that is the data plate for my carrier?..... Phil
