the german tanks were burried as a static defence line in southern bulgaria and pretty much forgot about until an enterprising bulgarian major and 2 german civvies dug one up and flogged it, they then went back for another and got caught. the major got 4 years in the klink but the 2 germans did a runner, following this the bulgarians dug up the tanks and sold them at auction in 2007 but i'm sure there's plenty still over in bulgaria, i often wonder what you could find if you went into some of the mountain ravines, the kind of places were it would be uneconomic to recover scrap !

Shauns carrier interesting pictures
Here's a few detailed, i hope shots of shauns carrier, firstly the manual data plate, the nealing cushion on the tool box, the parts manual gives details of the cushion felt pad size, the canvas material is the same as the seat covers, lastly the rear seat back pad.
I borrowed from shaun a grenade box base wood insert which i'm going to replicate, shaun, i will make you three up, the lid has a piece of wood with felt pad, details can be found elseware on this forum. I will post up some pics of the linkage cover, not easy to make. Kevin.

Rear Bren brass mount
Shaun,
I noticed on your carrier that the Bren brass mount is bolted on the inside of the rear armour.Was this due to the carrier's designation? Was it a 3'' mortar carrier with the brackets and equipment mounted on the outside of the rear armour or did somebody just bolt it on backwards.Mine is on the outside and I had to look at some factory photo's first to make sure mine was correct before asking about yours!Nice pieces to have.Enjoying watching the progress. Regards,Derk.
