Default GMC & 17pdr AT gun

The photo in the IWM archives shows 17pdrs on proper carriages, not the makeshift MkII on the 25 pdr gun carriage.

The unit serial 64 was used by AT Regts RA in an Armoured Division, MEF from October 1942 so this suggests a unit in the IWM photo had been in North Africa, such as the 65th AT Regt RA of the 7th Armoured Division. Many units in Italy used out of date markings! Also the vehicle seen in Scarfati has identical stowage on its 17pdr to one seen in the IWM photo, none of which are the same!
