Default 1937 Vickers Machine Gun Carrier No1 Mk1 CMM985

Second one made of 14 development carriers built by Vickers Armstrong, in 1936-1937 under contract T2996. These carriers developed into the Bren and Scout carriers used by the BEF in France. Please see attached link for further info, comes with some parts to complete the project. T1829 is a Historically important carrier and needs total restoration, set of very good track also available separately.

Open to sensible offers.
