Default Made for the Mk1 International 4x4s.

Rich,

I have had one of these for about 15 years. Picked it up at Bendigo Swap meet for $50.00.

The .50cal. is from a Liberator bomber and was recovered from a dam at Tocumwal many many years ago.

I think that these were made to fit the Mk1. Internationals 4x4's but did not fit the Mk3's, Mk5's or F2's.

There is a photo out there somewhere showing the mount on the roof of a Mk1. I thought I had it but sofar haven't found it. Maybe someone else has it available. I'll keep looking for it.

Mike C will be able to tell us more as I think he told me their history many years ago.

Regards Rick.
