What Does This Come From?

Hi Guys,
having a read it says AUST after some numbers, therefore a, water? container of Australian origin. Interestingly it has what appears to be Melbourne on there and WT, weight? Perhaps it is from an aircraft?
Cheers,
Dave

Hi Bob

I will check mine this week and see if a tap is present... Got mine on ebay and was sold as being for stuart, the seller had two Stuarts at one time.

Hi all - well popular belief suggests this is a crew water supply can out of a Stuart Tank. If everybody is happy we will leave that as the result.

I found this object sitting in a Saracen. Looks very similar although it does appear to hold cables of some type. This may give a clue to it's origin.

My 2 cents,
Ebay username "Herculesxl" ( or something similar ) from hazelwood in victoria sells these every now and then and lists them as a water container from a stuart or grant tank. He had one up just last week.

A good buy I reckon Colin. Did you happen to get the other MG ammo container he was selling too?
