Default Images of the radio battery box interior

As per title folks, I am looking to see how the angle iron frame rails are configured, I know only the sides are riveted and the rear and bottom are bolted but wondered how the angle is positioned

I am also after the number plate and oil can holder if anyone has one going for sale.

I just got my POW holder with sign and brackets from midwest military: http://midwestmilitary.net/brencarri...l#topbrenpage4

I'm very happy with the detail of it, and once the rain subsides hope to get it painted and installed. Postage to the UK would be killer though.

I Have that same "desert stowage" on my carrier project. Happy to take measurements if anyone wants to try to make a copy.

Default battery box photos

Hi Ritchie
Don't know if this helps but I have attached some photos of my battery box, including the underneath. Not as clear as it might be as not blasted yet. The bar for the rods that takes the wing nuts is riveted at its outer ends then tapped for the rod inboard of this. The photo of underneath might help. If you want me to measure anything let me know

Sorry, technology defeats me every time. I think the file size is too big?
I will have to get my kids to help me out
