Andre Gibeault's C15TA Restoration

[Ian Johns]

I found these from my last visit to Andre's.

These are from my first visit

I have recently purchased the Mirror Models 1/35th scale kit of the CMP C15TA and these restoration photos will be a great help with interior detailing. Thank you.
However can anyone help me out with any census numbers? I am looking to place the model in NWE between 1944 - 45 so any advice as to census number to specific regiment along with the correct colour of the Canadian divisional marking would be most useful.
Any advice or help appreciated.

cheers

Kevin

Had a great visit with Andre yesterday. Only wish he was closer.

That's either the world's smallest C15TA, or the worlds smallest photographs.

It looks good either way.

There were two in this part of the world. Tom Bowman in Gateshead picked up a complete example from Shap many years back, and there was one in a woodyard which is still in this area, now driving around as a restored driving chassis and front end.

Excellent restoration and great job of saving it from the scrapman and the elements, looks very very good. Tim how is your 75mm going?

Ian John's has just been to PQ to visit Andre and he was kind enough to send me these photos. As usual Andre is doing a magnificent job.

Cheers,
Barry
