Ron,
I was wondering what your hull number is? For your interest I have a MET GAS carrier with hull number 1105. I have been told it is a LP2 but no one is really able to tell me the differences. I see in a previous post on this thread there a copy of a rear axle modification explanation with numbers listed but my hull number doesn't fit into any of the lists. What does this all mean??

In your last photo I see that you have the same set up of of boxes and the lewis gun magazine box holder. Does this early set up make it a LP2? I do have an ID plate but it is not the correct plate. It is 982 and it is originally cast LP2 but after cleaning it I found a small A stamped beside the LP2.
Thanks
Darren
