Indeed it is Carrier, not sure of the earlier models but this is the same as my MK II. This box sits loose on the floor behind the bulkhead on the gunners side. The raised portion in the bottom of the box is to allow clearance for the brake rod to pass beneath it.

Can you look carefully on the box.
There should be a part number and year of manufacture. Usually on the top of the lid.

The stencils are very nice and helpful as well

hello
the making is TL 14151 D.B.

best regards

MKII Carrier.
Unsure of what the DB is. Brit manufacture perhaps?
Now we know.

Thanks,
Great pic btw.

That box looks like it might be the shorter one for the drivers side. Here are my two repros, copied from originals. In this case they have strengthening ribs to the lids instead of the X pressing. Ron

Forgot to add the pics which doesn't seem possible during an "edit". Ron
