Default Carrier value

What's the price of cheeze in Spain? Who knows. That means they're as much or as little as the buyer and seller want/will pay. It would help to have pictures of said items. One running with no armour or little bits.stowage boxes , lights, hooks, fittings , track condition?, brakes?, etc. went for 5000us in the spring on Ebay and a MKI which is remarkedly complete though not running just sold on ebay for 8000ish US. SO I would say the first one was WAY over priced. I figure a couple grand Canadian for the ones you describe would be fair to both and not a screaming deal to either. If you want to restore one to complete then expect to spend A LOT to buy or fabricate all the missing bits not including sandblasting or painting. And a truebren gun carrier was before MKI's and MkII's but it is the slang given to all the carriers the Universal Carrier is what the chap has. I've been a little down and dirty with the information there is a lot more to it , but the above is accurate though at a rudimentary level. Send pics, we can assess them more.
Incidentally I've a MKII and I will be in Edmonton for a few weeks in Sept if you wanted someone to go have a look with you, I'll even wear a blindfold.
