  1. What exactly do you need prints of? What are you trying to do?
  2. I am using the vehicle as a technology demonstrator, so installing original radios isn't in the plan. I've removed the Bowman radio racks and am designing new rack systems in it's place. What are the 353s? I take it that is a specific radio configuration?
  3. I did acquire a Clansman system that I need to install after I remove the rest of the old radio wiring. I believe it was 1-2 weeks before the war started that I put the deposit on it.
  4. Those are the manuals I missed in my initial purchase. Thank you for showing me that.
  5. The CES list is what I am meaning. I am not familiar with it. What is the CES list? Thank You for helping educate me on this.
  6. Oh, Ok. Is there any particular callout for the configurations that would help with identifying the standard equipment?
  7. When were the planes off the side of the hull get added? I saw in the Op Granby photos they are on the hulls. I take it they are for deflecting fragmentation and other attachments from the holes.
  8. I have all of those manuals from there. What else do you have?
  9. It does appear additional armor plates are attached along the bottom with those bolts.
  10. How many prints like that do you have for the CVR(T)s?
  11. Hahaha, I actually broke the mudguard the day we unloaded it. I got a log wedged in the tracks crossing a drainage ditch testing it out. I'll get photos of the log. I found the first piece of the broken mudguard in the field yesterday. I was thinking the same about the cargo box, but there is perforations coming from inside and outside. Some are 5.56 and some are 7.62. I'll find some more of the in depth pictures I took of it.
  12. Good Evening Everyone, Earlier this year I purchased my first CVR(T) from Tanks-A-Lot! in the UK. The engine was from a Spartan that participated in Op Granby in Desert Storm. Obviously, that Spartan had a petrol engine at the time. https://merlinarchive.uk/vehicle/01FF13 The last unit it was assigned to was the 38 Seringapatam: https://www.forces.net/services/army/royal-artillery-bids-farewell-centuries-old-unit I'd love to hear from any veterans that from the unit, or anyone that may have photos, or additional history. Apparently the cargo box took fire in a few separate instances. From my researched it appears this Spartan was in the lot of rebuilds before the Scimitar Mk. 2s. Let me know if you guys have any questions, or observations.
