z-man-sr,

Welcome to this forum! I split your reply from the thread "General Notice to All Carrier Types" so your request would get the attention it deserves. Alex has already given you a tip on where to get a parts list. Here's hoping some of the guys here with hands-on Carrier experience can tell you how to align the track on your T16.

Would you like to share some pics of your restoration with us? If you cannot figure out how to post them here, e-mail them to me and I'll do it for you.

Thanks,
Hanno

Z-man,
I acquired one of the T-16s that Russ Morgan had as well. I am restoring mine back to the original British/Canadian configuration. I have a lot of NOS parts, as well as quite a few reproduction pieces. You should have come to Brent Mullins Open House. I was there with a few parts. Next year you could bring your T-16 and drive it around at his show. There were several armoured vehicles, M18, M5 Stuart, M8, M5 high speed tractor, Sherman, etc. I will be out of town for about 3 weeks, but I can send you a parts list when I get back. Rod Shaver

So we have two owners of ex-Russ Morgan T16s on this Forum. Where did his fleet of T16s go? Does Russ still own any himself?

Hanno,
The fourth T-16 was bought by a collector in Colorado Springs, Colorado by the name of Roy Warren. He hasn"t done anything with it yet. Rod Shaver
