Yes, that particular carrier has the Boys Rifle storage brackets on the engine cover, pretty much where they are 'playing' with the PIAT setup. It makes me think this may date the photos to around the time the Boys was falling out of favour as a viable anti tank piece of kit and Ford was exploring options for incorporating the PIAT as a possible replacement to the Boys.

I have a set of PIAT mounts for the front fighting compartment , I did have many years ago the rear transit brackets, they were the same as the vicker bracket .
Not fitted the front mountings, as for now I do as many ww2 photos show and my PIAT just lays in the back. Handy to grab and go tiger hunting !
