A friend in Georgia (USA, not Soviet) has a T-16 that he plans to sell to help offset costs of another restoration he is doing. This one hasn't been driven for several years but did run when it was parked in the shed. It will need work to put it back to wartime configuration since the armor has been cut but it doesn’t appear to be a basket case like my carrier was when I started out.
I can't answer specific questions about the vehicle but the seller can. I'm only posting this since he wasn't sure how to attach images on the forum. Seller's contact information is: Knox Herndon Phone 770 719 2365 eMail khern2365 at aol dot com He is new to MLU but should also be able to respond via this message thread.

Hi David, what type of wheels has that carrier got as they look very unusual.
Colin. |

Hey Colin,
It has the solid disc pattern wheels all around. They were produced at the same time that the curved spoke pattern came out to replace the straight pattern that only the very earliest production T-16s had. The disc type are supposed to handle mud and snow build up better since it can't get packed up into any spokes. But so far nobody has found any documentation on any of the wheels in terms of what was going on with production and if certain vehicles were built one way or another for a particular reason. You see this type in some wartime T-16 photographs of Canadian troops in Holland and Germany in 1945. A few years back there were WWII reenactors that selected this type T-16 for conversion to German armor since they needed running lower hulls with disc wheels for the look. Usually they put the driver at the rear so the drive sprockets would be in the front and then altered the steering linkage for the new short run. Somewhere on MLU there are photos and discussion of some of the conversions that came out looking pretty cool.

Hi, I went and saw an old boy a year or so back to buy some carrier wheels off him, he had once restord a T16 that came out of the pounds scrap yard. We got talking about T16 wheels and he told me they produced the solid disc type to prevent sabotage from the enemy, apparently you could disable the vehicle by putting iron rods through the wheels jamming he tracks, he was about 90 years old and seemed to know what he was taliking about.
this could be the reason?.

Greetings Guys,
I have a running T-16 for sale. We got it up and running at the end of Jan 2011. It starts, runs, shifts, turns and stops. The drive train is in great shape as are the tracks and the matching road wheels. Depending on how much restoration you like it could be made into a nice vehicle with a lot of sweat equity, but did I say IT IS RUNNING. The vehicle needs total restoration on the inside. Many a collector spends lots of $ just on getting a vehicle Running! As you probably know, many of these vehicles came into the States through the South Eastern Equip Co, Augusta Georgia ( a 2 1/2) hour drive from where I live. See my Ebay Auction at http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...AQ:MOTORS:1123 My complete contact info is in the Ebay auction Blessings, Knox ><> Cell 678-665-3623 Home 770-719-2365 khern2365@aol.com |

I clicked and didn't get anything useful but a search on "t-16 carrier" found it. The link I got was:

I believe it was relisted because he wasn't getting the bids he expected the first time around. I wish ebay didn't work like that.....both the buyer and the seller should be taking a chance.
