Restored Ferret Scout Recon Light Armoured Vehicle - Mk I
Rescued from a country shed, this ferret has had extensive cosmetic restoration. All that was removable was pulled apart and then thoroughly processed until it looked as new. While we only have the word of the farmer who owned them as to mechanical working condition being “good”, he did advise that it had a brake problem.
The ferret (except for the smoke launchers) appears complete. It stands on car jacks in a specially constructed shed and has been on exhibit there for the past 8 years (with batteries removed). The engine is cranked by hand regularly to ensure eventual start and compression seems fine. Sold AS IS, we recommend inspection by a qualified mechanic.
This ferret is currently being auctioned on ebay: Ferret ebay listing
