Houlio, google in (old bombardier being used in NL.) Click on the second one down called snowmobile-mlu forum. Maybe you can tell the boys what the www. site is called. I can't get the d%#!* thing to work right.
Anyway when you get there scroll around & click on a few spots. There's a b2 I think it's called that over in Kubinka, Russia in their tank museum. It's canadian. The flag along side of it says so!
Lots of stuff to look @. Might find interesting.
houlio:
Old Trucker - Sounds like these boys are pretty focused on the military type vehicles, pretty interesting though. Did you try to send them a post to check out "Northern Tracks"? They might find the answers to some of their questions. Keep the links coming!
the old trucker:
Houlio, I half thought about that, but didn't do it. I will try & do that today. Do you know the name of the site to get on there? I can find it but I thought we'd make it eaiser for Grfishmaker to find it when he returns. Someone has to help that fellow out!!!(chuckle chuckle)
Oh!! Almost forgot Houlio, in your St. Brieux site I noticed in a couple of pics of the front inside floor area, it looks like the chassis has some 2x? on edge. I was wondering if that area is mostly wood???

Here's a couple of the pictures of the old B12 in the museum in Kubinka, Russia.

I notice that it has a cargo door on both sides with square windows. I find this interesting, as the old military machine that we have has the same type of cargo doors on both sides with the square windows. I always thought that they were added later in life, but perhaps they were factory stock after viewing these photos. It appears to be a metal machine, but I think it should be an old wooden body for that era. Something seems not right.
Good find OT.
grfishmaker:
Here's a photo of a bombardier from sometime in the same area as the ones above.
Does anyone have any ideas as to what the projections behind the cargo door would be for?
