HAPPY DAYS !!!
the downside is the mud is a complete arse to get off once it dries but i wouldn't have it any other way.

Hi Jim
How about some photos for us guys in the boonies that can't get high speed and therefore Facebook is an all night adventure getting on. Long time no see. Cheers, Barry

Hi, I keep the carrier spayed all over with 'duck oil' inside and out, stops it rusting aswell as the mud sticking to much.
Someone watched me doing this at W&P and said 'you dont want to do it like that, Dust will stick to the oil' (Check out 'Harry Enfield' 'Mr you dont want to do it like that'). Have we hijacked Jims 'Thread' ??.  Kev.

patience...
Hi guys,
The carrier project is still with the seller in Canada until this spring.... I had filed a BATF Form 6 amlmost a year ago but I made the mistake of attaching a cover letter that asked if - with the "Canadian Exemption" to the Weapons of War" import provisions - I really needed to file the Form 6. Several atempts to follow up with emails and calls went unanswered. I now realize that I created an exception to some BATF' admin person's day and the application was diverted. Likely until some future date when they had the time to research the answer.  So I resubmitted the application in it's simplest form. So, April or May or June... when I get it back, I have a broker lined up and several movers to work with to make the final arrangements. When I do get ti home, I will take a full photo inventory. I found that with digital cameras and apps like Picasa, it is realistic to photograph the dickens out of a project. I found out with the Humber Armoured car project that I relied heavily on the same efforts by other owners. We are planning to creat a joint Humber Armoured Car archive. I know the pics from my first carrier restoration and from others, are still in film and prints that need scanning. I imagine there are others in the same state. In the spring, when i really get my hands back int he carrier world, I will be happy to share my pics. After all, With my first carrier I was a neophyte and so many people helped me with letters (yes, back a while! ) photos, visits, and a few beers to get started. CHeers Jim
