Oxford Carrier, indeed! Built in 1944 only a few saw service, most were used after the war. Art Johnson told us a while ago the Canadian 25th Brigade in Europe used Oxfords to tow 17 pdrs.
There is at least another survivor, I saw it in the metal some ten years ago but did not fully realise what it was...
