Hi Eric, regarding the tank hunter carrier you have there, I am trying at the moment to make the covers which go over the petrol tanks, i have noticed in your pictures of the tank hunter, it still has the angle iron pieces for supporting the covers still attached to the engine rails (long rails which run either side of the engine for supporting the engine cover assembly), I think someone has mounted the battery tray on the right hand side angle iron pieces on your tank hunter carrier. I need to know how the angle iron pieces differ from a standard mk1 carrier, if you have any photos of this area that would be great , many thanks kevin.

Hi Kevin:
Sorry it took awhile to get backto you, our old coputer died and had to get a new one and am still learning to use the new one. Hopefully these pictures will help you out, if not let me know and will try for other ones. Cheers Eric |

That's quite a cut down. At least you have the Ford badge.

Hi Eric, Thanks for the pictures, In picture two, the cross pieace next to the battery tray, with a central hole in it , would you say this was original or has it been welded in both ends, it appears welded at the engine end to the angle iron support piece, Does that angle iron support piece have any other holes drilled in it, I am looking for a possibe 3/8" bsf tapped hole?.
thanks kevin.

Would that chassis be from a 1500wt? There used to be a guy in Bacroft who had a couple 1500wt's parked behind his mother's place down beside the old hospital in Bancroft Ont. One I remember he had one painted all red. Not sure if he still has them or not

Good morning Kevin:
I checked out that angle iron next to the battery box, to me it looks like someone has added it. It is welded at both ends and appears to be a scrap piece and not factory as they are not clean cuts. Eric |
