Am I thinking of the right box ? Sits inside the armour on the gunners side in the rear compartment, many crews moved it to the glacis plate ? Chieftain latches are very very close to carrier ones.
Richard, No miss type, £300, Give S&G Fabricators in Lowestoft, Suffolk a ring on 01502 566734. £30 would not even buy you the metal, no guys going to spend a day replicating rolled hinges exact to your pattern piece for the fun of it, .

Does anyone know what is stored on top of the box?, If its not the track adjuster?. I have attached a couple of Jordan Bakers pictures of his carrier, note this has pre-fabricated hinges as seen on other Canadian examples, the one we are doing has integeral rolled hinges, hence the price.
