Default Canadian Otter Armour Car walkaround photo ?

Hi,

I am looking for Otter Light Reconnaissance Car walkaround photos. I have searched using google but failed. It seems lack of info for this vehicle. Can anyone introduce reference book or any other website has on-line photos ? Thanks in advance.

These are of an Otter I took about a year ago. They are good for detail but I wouldn't put much faith in the colour scheme.

Kurtis, there was a beautifully restored one at Beltring a couple of years ago. The chaps name was Mike but in my morning pre coffee haze I can't remember his last name. Perhaps some of the UK guys could chime in. He was a real super guy and maybe he could send you some photos. His last name has been mentioned on this forum before so perhaps Hanno could help.
Cheers,
Barry

Default High Speed?

Kurtis, do you have high-speed internet access? If you do, I have approximately 18 large photos of the Otter to which Barry refers. I could zip them up and send them to you, but if you are on a dial-up connection, the file would be too big.

Let me know.

Geoff

Default Mike Ebeling's Otter

Kurtis:

The very nice Otter that Barry referred to is owned by Mike Ebeling in the UK.

Some photos here:

Oops .... I was doing some major reorganizing of my Photo Bucket account and removed that folder.

I'll can reload in sometime today for you if you need it.

Nothing new was added though as I haven't been back in that area of the country in some time.

Default PC problem

Hi shermanfreak,

Since my own PC was error( I am using my office PC now), I didn't download your pictures for Otters & Staghound. I will buy a new PC two weeks later, so I need your help to provide those pictures later. Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Kurtis

Hi Kurtis

I think it may have been you that had contacted me some time ago about getting a bunch of Otter pictures.

At the time I had no good way of getting them to you. I am now on Cable Internet and could easily email them to you.

Send me an email or PM with your email address and I will pass them on.

I am looking for Canadian Otter photos as well as a good colour photo for the cover - all for use in a new booklet in the Weapons of War series.
Thnx,
