Rob,

Thanks for the tip. That would make it an M7B2 Priest, a Korean Wartime modification of the M7B1, the type with Ford GAA V8 engine. To reconstruct a Priest Kangaroo, one would need an M7, the Continental 9-cyl. radial-engined variant.

See http://mitglied.lycos.de/hartziel/typen/m7.htm for pictures of Priest SP guns on German ranges.
