Hi Richie,
This is not my sentinal hull, not selling that at the moment. this is a Canadian lower hull, it still has the lower hull number visable on the rear angle iron. it has no rot and needs most of the top armour making apart from the spare gunners and drivers armour which has been temporaly bolted on. it was made to look like a captured "bren carrier" for our desert display at the war and peace show this year (are we going to see you there next yea ?). glad to see you are progressing with your project.
TTFN Shaun

Sent the T-16 chap a message and he said:

"I myslef used this and had fun with it in the 1980's and it has been stood in a dampish shed since then. This is why it needs doing again. If it required a respray it would at least £35k"

I have just heard from a relaible scource that the chap should be given a wide birth, the 25k price bracket for unrestored T16 would echo this, bearing in mind Kevin weatcroft had two hulls for sale last year for 4500 GBP.......mind they were in super poor state and were empty within (but the hulls were ok) also got offred another T16 complete 14miles on clock with seized engine for 9K.... this was only just last year.... I shall not name my scource but that person has had direct dealings with the seller in the past. i think pending on what comes with Shauns his would be the better deal, mind me being me i would be a hagglin

EDIT: i should clarify that i have had no dealings with this chap and i can only take comments on face value, those that have dealt with the chap are members on this forum and i would leave it to them to comment if they wish...

if they are shot up to hell then yes he wanted 4500 for the pair but i cant stress enough how bad they were. give him a ring, he is a nice bloke, he may stillo have them if not may have something else, he is always looking for funds for his Panther rebuild

Yes they are the same hulls they came from Wheatcroft who got them from shaun about 4 years ago a good friend of mine saw them at Wheatcrofts place.
its a small world the same chap AJ is the one with the t16 i was telling you about bear in mind the hulls from SE have no tracks......

drop us a call soon mate theres soo much you need to know about things if your looking for a carrier.

cheers martyn
