Follow the movements and changing hands of T58540 HERE, then HERE, then HERE, and lastly HERE.

And here's what it has looked like along the way:

That background looks kinda familier......

A (former) Museum is the seller, perhaps?

And it looked rather more authentic in Tony's pics too.

Hi, I nearly purchased that carrier in Jan 2011 from Justin, for $4500. I think my shipper scared him off when he started talking about access and assistance with loading in a container.

I am so glad this carrier in a very short timescale has been saved.

Default ebay ad

Is anybody else having trouble finding the ad on ebay?
Luke's link works from here but if you do a general search for 'bren carrier' on ebay it does not show up.

A few years ago, there was a carrier advertised on ebay in the U.S. It was blocked to Australians. I downloaded the pictures and sent them to Keith.
I'm wouldnt think an Australian listing would have that problem though.

Hi Lynn,
I just checked again and it is now a searchable item to me. It may have been a delayed viewable item after uploading. Strange though.
