Year of the Carrier part 2?
The record is likely to stay in the antipodes, so what about another YOTC over your side of the ditch eh Colin? A lot of us would like to come over to see.
Pic below shows 10% of the fleet heading home to Gisborne. The one in the dumper body is a farmer's conversion of an LP2, and is due to have a timber deck installed. It is am example of 'Swords to plough shares" The rearmost UC1* carrier on the trailer is waiting on the side and rear plates. I hope to get them soon. It has so many borrowed parts to be returned! The carrier's first run was at the motor camp after fitting the steering box, fuel lines, battery leads, solenoid and making the seat squabs and backs! It towed the AOP onto a transporter for the run to the airfield, and had a brief drive on unloading. The major test was the record run around the airfield, so I am very happy with it. There are a few adjustments to make, but the steering is precise. The other pic shows the horse team waiting to pull the limber and 18pdr out onto the airfield. They will be doing the ANZAC Parade in Wellington this year, so it was a good try out for them in front of crowds. The big challenge will be the steel wheels on sealed roads! Rob

Hi Robin
I'm even more impressed that as well as help organise the event you managed to get your MK1 running. It was a long way off when you sent me the pictures. Was Shaun involved with the horses? I remember him showing me some pictures when you were all over at W&P. Ben
