Thun SHP. Universal Carrier
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

I bet it didn't look that good when it came out of the factory!

just like Swiss horology. It was restored with thoroughness, patience, perseverance, «heart in work» and uprightness.

Wow, a chrome horn! Just as if it was ordered out of the Kuryakyn or Paugco Harley parts catalogs! Laughing

Nicely restored tracked vehhie.
I would like to add a small point to that vehicle, because she is not a typical British or Canadian built Universal Carrier but U.S. Ford built T-16 Carrier - an improved and heavily modified version. There are many differences between them not only in the length of rear compartment and number of road wheels but in steering system etc...
