1944 KV-1 Radio Box

[Dennis Gelean (RIP)]

This thread will be useful to other MLUers. I am restoring a 2k1 body. It has the tray at the front of the box for carrying the map/radio table. I gave up on finding a penthouse for it. installed is the WS 19 plus kit and 2 chore horses.
Per ww2 literature I installed 2 CMP seats, 2 rifle mounts. One mistake is the box lining is mahogany and should be white., the floor is battleship lino the way it came, some say it should be metal? The spare tire holder is a flat piece of metal with T handle as ww2 pictures show. never seen a round tire holder on a 2K1. If I can find someone with a fish eye lens I will post pictures.
