Does that prompt anything Richard? What about a power pack of some sort?
Just my thoughts.
Lynn,
I was trying to think what might have been used by Australian Army. Matilda came to mind as some were fitted with Leyland engines although I do not know what the rads looked like. Pretty sure it is not a Vickers Lt Tank one having worked on one.

Default Rad

Could it be postwar, and or off something small like a generator or pump trailer?
