Default I have two of these. I must be sitting on a gold mine!!!!!

Ford Special Pattern Vehicles MILITARY Owner's Manual Canada F-8 F-AT F-60H

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-Speci...item5ae6ee459b

"This is a rare opportunity for a serious collector."

...............er.....yeah!
Guess the two I bought for under $50 a piece were just flukes!

Either that or they were priced appropriately and this one is greatly overpriced.

Maybe it has a map to Solomon's Lost Mine tucked in the cover?

Default Special Pattern book

Good grief! $300 starting bid??!! I sometimes wonder why someone would go to all the trouble to take photographs, write a description, then go through the convoluted ebay process just to completely waste their and other's time with an opening price so high as to guarantee there will be no bids.

What is this?? It's ww2 I think. They look to be international harvester wheels. Mil tyres. Is it an Arty carriage or something?

It's the chassis of an 18pdr Limber with the Australian conversion to pneumatic tyres. It is also an absolute bargain.

I thought it might be something to do with the 18pdr, but I never thought of the limber. Did you buy it Tony?

No, too late. A painful reminder to check into MLU more often!
