I believe the FAT belongs to the RCHA museum here in Shilo. I think it was one of Bill Gregg's.
The limber looks like the one that used to grace the base commanders front lawn (painted semi-gloss green), and there is one 25pdr set up with the shortened shield and tray for this purpose. There is at least one and possibly two more of the modification kits floating around the base.
I found one of the kits laying in the dustbowl years ago; it had layed there so long it had sank into the ground.
