Seat back fittings
We have a Sentinel Wagon 3" mortar carrier (T 80068) and a Ford Mk I* (lower hull 4200c) which both had the double slotted clips at the bottom of the seat back.
It's looking good Richie, and I'm looking forward to seeing it running at W&P. Rob

Rob, have you ever seen that lever type on a Universal in N.Z.?
I don't think any of them came our way. Even the Canadian Mortars which were MkII* Correct?

With Rob's lower hull 4200 being a MK-I*, perhaps it was produced for an NZ contract, which called for the hook style bracket? That is four brackets per seat back, each with two cut-out positions.
The carrier is looking swell Richie. Web feet, cheesy grins, six toes... that will be quite a gathering. Last edited by Michael R.; 24-05-14 at 01:45.

A pic is worth lots of words...
My MkI* hull has had an LP engine fitted at some stage, with the front engine mounts and radiator shifted forward, and an LP rear mount fitted on the floor.
Hence it could have had anything done to it in the past. Michael can you tell anything from the bolt hole pattern in the bulkhead? Lynn, were any Mk II* in NZ? I haven't seen or heard of any. Rob

Rob, see my above post. I think Dave H's Mortar is a MkII*. I think the Mk designation is only relevant to the Mortar carriers as it is, in all other respects, a MkI*
I have seen a T16 dash for sale, I think there is a guy up near Thames with a T16, and there is probably the odd MkII around, but I don't think any MkIIs or MkII*s arrived during WWII or relevant to the war effort or as a result of government purchases in that era. Daves T number is 30080 isn't it? I think Jeff P told me we took delivery of 300 MkI*s, to N.Z., during the war.
