1. If those pictures of that carrier going through the snow doesn't get them, nothing will. Say, I've got a few snow banks around here...and a carrier....

2. If it sells for less than those two hulks a few weeks ago, I'll...

a) its working and looks pretty

b) it on ebay and folk will go crackers like they usually do

starting bid $5000 USD (£3577) plus shipping minimum £1500

Hmmmm the mind begins to turn over i will watch this with eager eyes.

Hi, Its a Mk1 also richard, what you have been looking for. It's also one of the very few carriers driven by the invisible man.

Indeed i think its an early one too as the track tensioners are the older type (the type adjusted with the shephards crook) that can be seen on the front (unless i have misread the good book by mr Watson)

can anyone remember what those two wrecks went for, i lost interest when it went silly circa $4500.

Kevin i will watch it and see how daft it goes, but who knows it could end up in Newcastle upon Tyne...the centre bulkhead would make adding the outer armour back on that bit more easier

guy got back to me wants circa 1600 - 1800 just to drop it off at the shipping yard (Baltimore), and he wont see it into the container so another person would need to be present to organise that side of things.... I have asked about links and sprockets, he did not give me any pics of the sprockets saying (no teeth missing) he says there are 166 links in each side track wise


just so you know guys. think by the time it has gone nuts it will not be viable for my budget

good luck to who ever gets it.

cheers

Richard
