Q.2. Were the Pioneer Tools mounted on the rear hull held down with leather straps and buckles, or web straps, and if leather, was the leather left in a natural colour or tinted a green?

1. No - these were removed
2. I am assuming webbing straps for my VC restoration... but this is assumption at this stage.. I have not got far enough to really care about tying stuff down on the outside of the hull!
