canadian mk1 restoration

[eddy8men]

thanks for all the support and encouragement guys. i picked the carrier up a week ago from the fella that was helping to rebuild it so it's up to me now and i'm looking forward to getting stuck into it especially as i've just got back from the war and peace show which was a real baptism of fire but i learned a lot and spoke to a few other carrier owners who offered their advice and encouragement which was gratefully received, another advantage of driving it at the show was that most of the faults revealed themselves after 4 days of driving so it should be sorted for the next show in mid august
thanks steve for the pics of the carriers in service, much appreciated especially as i'd like to put the unit and other vehicle markings on now and i'm not sure what goes where. the 4th pic you posted is interesting as the carrier on the left has a solid white line painted above the ct number and this is the same as my carrier, do you have anymore info on the markings and possible significance of the line ? i'd like to restore it as close to it's original spec as possible so any help would be gratefully received.

cheers
