Hi Jim! Hi Folks!

Sorry I don't know the answer to your question.

But I have a question for you. Where is that vehicle at? The wall with the wire on top has me thinking that vehicle is in Iraq.

Interesting,
Sgt, Scouts Out!

Pity as we suspect its a Mark I CS upgraded to Mark II CS standard. The absence of the gun complicates matters....

Cool

Mk.I CS upgraded to Mk.II CS Standard? That could explain these extra armour plates on the hull and small turret omitted. These features combined with early gun mantlet… hm, this could be a pretty rare kindercoach.
CS variants had (reportedly) extra ammo racks in the space below and instead of small turret. Have you found something like that or special fittings for such racks at least??
