He is located between HWY 81 amd 87 at least 5 + hours from Ottawa..... 12 hour day plus fuel....then HST at border and a few burgers.....all adds up to the cost.
I am pretty sure we can fabricate the missing lunette parts as we have the manuals and I believe there may be one to copy from in Oshawa. Time will tell. Bob

Fuel, time and burgers don't count. Its an adventure and adventures cost money. Or you can call it entertainment, leisure pursuit or pastime.
You might even find more treasures along the way or get side tracked into something else. Just think of how proud you would feel saving another piece of our heritage! Not affiliated with the seller BTW. ![]()

So the auction has now closed and there was 1 bid. Is the successful bidder a member of the MLU Forum? Chris ? Bob? and yes, you are welcome to copy from the one in Oshawa.

Hi Brian
I was sure that you had one of these. It wasn't me, although I was awfully tempted. Been spending $$$ like a drunken sailor lately on MV and militaria so it was just to hard to justify. Trying to set aside funding for the new shop! Anyhow, I know who bought it but he shall remain nameless on the Forum unless he decides to identify himself. ![]()

I discussed a lower bid with the seller if no one came to the plate with the $750........ seems some else did......good for him as it seems to be coming back to Canada.
Hey, you win some you loose some. Bob

Hi Bob,
When I spoke with the seller, I didn't get the impression that there was much room for bargaining even if the auction closed without a bid. Maybe a little bit but not much. In any case since I wanted it, I figured that placing a bid was the best way to secure the deal and make sure that it wasn't going to get cut-up or turned into some kind of camping trailer. It should be coming to MTL in the not too distant future I hope. I also wanted to thank Chris for posting the auction info!!! Cheers, François
