Default Rescued MK 1

Here are a few pic's of a MK 1 Universal Carrier I got from up north Ontario. What an adventure, it took the dozer almost 3hrs to get in the bush to where the Carrier was at from the road. We entered the bush at 8:30am and finally got out of it around 3:30pm.

It was an adrenelin packed day or should I say two days because we started out at midnight on Friday and finally got home Saturday around 3am, or should I say Sunday morning at 3am. All in all it was worth it, I can't wait to get to the restoration!!

Wow! That's a really great find. Well done.

Now your pain starts Be sure to post every detail, please.
