I think your right rick it was really the barrel and recooperater I was after.
Ron, the vickers would be a great project. It has the engine, trans, radiator, linkage and another hull with lots of stuff in it. A very unique little tank. But I will have to try ang get a bit more track because some of it is dead. Colin.

Track
Colin its a pity this did not happen a little while back that Marmon Herrington carrier conversion had British track on it but thats gone now, I will keep an eye out up here for you and see what turns up, maybe some one closer to home might have some they can spare after all its in a good course

Hi Lynn, I will check it in the daylight but the track that is there does look like the horns are closer and the lead plug area is different also. There is a t16 there as well. I think a busy beaver will be an understatement with this lot.

Wheels and tracks
Hi Colin,
Third pic is very interesting showing differant wheels on the double bogies also the track is not Aust track, the wheel leaning next to the carrier seems narrow, in fact I reckon its the one that I picked up and put down again a couple of months ago, By the way if it is ,that one it measured two and a half inches across the ruber , the same as the ones fitted to that Marmon conversion that I recoved last year, more to ponder,and although my wheels did not have rubber this one does,so now whats the answer?did we make narrow wheels here? if so why? Regards, Ron

On the third picture, is that two aluminium turret baskets for the tanks, on the truck?
