Has had a lower hull plate from another carrier stuck on the side as top armour... So you will need to replace that, and rip the dash out of it too.... Otherwise looks good. It is English (or I should say I believe it is) as the engine mount rails are right angle rather than the curved bent type ala Canadian design.
Has had some mods done during a resto at some point but its all fixable with time and cash. Ps I have a repro side armour plate that would fit that side of the carrier.
Appears to have Aussie front idlers fitted.
I can also help you out with front and rear fenders... Rear armour drawings and a template for all the holes to be drilled on the rear plate.
If you want it, secure it with deposit, no offence but now that you have put this in the public domain some unscrupulous types will swoop in and swipe the carrier from under you... There is little honour amongst people who want something badly enough.
