Hello Stephen. Here is the mesh on my MK2. Which I think is original. I can get a closer shot if required. Ron

Hi Stephen ,
Welcome to the forum, nice to see another MK2 in the UK. what date was yours built ? Is it a Birtish build or Canadian ? last question did you get it recently ?

Hello Shaun
Canadian built with an acceptance date of 4th November 1944. Only had it for twenty years. And still finding out things all the time.

Mine too is a Canadian MK2 from 1944. We could have twins? Only had mine for about 15-16 years

Stephen,

Thanks for that. My carrier is a Canadian MK2 No2 * built in November 1944 as well. Whats your vehicle numbers, it would be interesting to see how close they are. i once had 2 carriers and they were one day apart in production ( 33 vehicles apart ).

Its just the spotter coming out in me
