Way to go, Lance! Good find... are you back from the sandbox in time to take delivery of her? We'll love to see pics of both of you "operational"...

I never expected the underside to be an open ladder frame. My feverish mind expected an enclosed monocoque, like a Ferret. This makes good sense, not as a mineproofed vehicle, but as a bullet and shell resistent vehicle.

Default Humber Scout update

Well the Humber arrived last January 2010, had some issues with the engine and some other areas, fuel system, electrical etc. Long list of things that needed to be redone or updated for safety issues....Currently it is getting a engine rebuild, some metal work to the interior, making map box, first aid bracket with sten mag holder, black out plate for the rear and some other goodies. New pics here.

Very true.
I can meet you half way

On the other hand Vancouver is just around the corner.
Takes 4 weeks from there......

Cheers,
