Do you know how original this last model is.


The pedestal mount version is also interesting. Could that be a version of the PLM Mount?

Neil,

Last photo............it may have been from Hong Kong police ( a long shot guess ), because I know of someone with a RHKP Ferret that had a Saracen two door turret fitted, the mounting plate had been cut to shape and welded on to the Ferret hull!

There was a company that dealt in Dingo parts back in the 1960/70's, called E.C. McCann at Hamworthy, Poole, Dorset. They did mods like this for export to small countries in need of light armour. Seem to think there were some pics of their work in Windscreen a while back.

PLM mount,........... it does look like one, I am familiar with the one on a Humber scout, as I converted one to twin Bren mounts.
