Oops almost forgot. There is a photo on the AWM photo collections database of ARN 139999 and its sibling (seen front-on in one of the photos earlier on this thread) while they were at Bandiana. The AWM timeframe caption is incorrect, this was in 1945. Go to the AWM website and search for 'Weasel' and it'll come up. It is photo P05457.009 hope they don't mind me showing it here but it's all for a good cause. People rebuild Spitfires from the dataplate up and call them restored, this Weasel will be about 50% original with as much as we can sensibly use. It will be painted in its original factory-painted alpine camouflage pattern when it's finished, just as shown here.
Here it is, enlarged and sharpened a little bit:
