[Wanted] Sankey Widetrack Mk3/Mk2 - 25 yrs old
Chaps,

I'm Looking for an excellent condition or restored (ideally mk3/disk brakes, but mk2 would be fine) Sankey wide track.

I'm an expat brit living in Seattle (originally from Chester). I have NAS D90 out here and would like to export a Sankey to pair with it. The rub is that in order for US customs to allow it in and not just chuck it off the boat - I need to find one that is 25 years old or older with proof of age (intact MOD plate / reg is usually enough).

As I'm paying a boat load (pun intended) to ship to Seattle - I'm looking for a cleaner specimen than the usual find.

Surely someone has a prized Sankey they'd be willing to part with and go buy a shiny new Penman instead Wink

Appreciate any leads.
Cheers,
-Brett

Sorry cant help with the Sankey but for general interest, are you allowed to use a NATO hitch out there?

Worth a try...
The British Army Training Unit at Sudbury ( BATUS) Ontario in Canada ......?!
I'm sure I read an article in Ottawa Valley Land Rover Club magazine saying they turn up for sale in the local area from time to time....
Might be worth pursuing search in that area of with that club...
Hope this helps.
