Hi Everyone, I am looking for a CVRT Scorpion for restoration, anything considered. I am on a limited budget and am looking something I can restore over a number of years. May consider a Sabre or Scimitar if the price is right. Would consider a non runner with parts missing. Pm me with what you have. Ian.

Hi Tony, thank you for the welcome to the forum, I hope to fall in with a CVRT of some description that needs a restoration. My funds are limited hence the reason for a restoration project. I intend to strip right down and restore over a few years. Regards, Ian

Hello,

 

Considering selling my CVRT Spartan, it's an unfinished project and a lack of time is making me think it's time to let it go:

 

Direct from Withams released 2013, I've put an A1 recon J60 in it, rebuilt all the brakes and master cylinders. These have now gone a bit spongey, probably just need bleeding again. 70l marine fuel tank fitted to replace the original, not yet fully plumbed in. I have receipts for most spares.

 

The back has been stripped out, most of the internal fittings NBC pack etc were missing. But mechanically vehicle is complete. It would not take a lot to get it running. Cosmetically it does require a bit of work. All external lights are missing, wiring is in tact and appears to work.

 

Engine currently not running due a leaking carb, but help can be given loading onto transport. Engine ran well. Paintwork is standard as released condition

 

Small pile of spares, road wheels, final drive, dashboard, front storage bins, parts manual, owners manual, A-frame towing bar, complete ignition system, seats etc etc

 

Ive tried to be as honest as I can, PM me for more details. Priced realistically. Located near Oundle.

Hi James,

What price have you in mind for your CVRT Spartan? I am currently looking for a CVRT to restore.

Regards,

Ian.

Hi Everyone, My name is Ian, I am from Antrim in Northern Ireland. I am a Plant Manager with a large construction company for the last 13 years. I have had an interest in the Alvis CVRT Tanks for a number of years now and would like to purchase either a Scorpion, Sabre or Scimitar in need of complete restoration. I am hoping the members from this site can point me in the right direction and advise against any pitfalls.
