I see a winch behind the bulkhead and I am assuming that the mast is something to do with it also. I see a blanking plate or locker door on the side.

I think the mast may be a read hearing and that in fact it may be a portee for Wombat or may an M series 106 recoiless of US origins and the side door gives access to the winch to hand crank the weapon up into the load bed and the boxes n either sides carry the rounds.

How am I doing?

It looks like a recovery version, that mast is actually the jib. Ryan, is that the remains of a 2 pounder attack carrier in the other photo?

Yes, a wrecker. Only 6-8 made.
And yes that is a 2pdr tank attack carrier. I'm lead to believe that it sold some years ago and is no longer there.
