Bill,

In December there's an auction running in the USA, with three types of carrier - Universal, Loyd and Windsor - offered at no reserve.

HTH,
Hanno

The USA auction is all vehicles acquired from the old Victory Museum that was in Luxemburg. Being longtime static displays, I wouldn't expect them to be running or even complete in the engine compartments. But you never can tell.

Certainly would be better project vehicles to start with than what most of us were stuck with when we got the OD armour disease. I like the canvas top that the Windsor carrier has.

Link to the forced auction in case anyone isn’t familiar with it:

Default Outstanding collection

Too bad to see such a collection torn appart but it puts them back on the market for those that have an interest and the money....
That Loraine is interesting I had never heard of it before. Would be quite a good vehicle if you could afford it.
