They are ex- Stuart gun towers. These were a post war British Army conversion for towing 17pdr anti tank guns. The front hook is the giveaway. On the conversion the entire hull roof was removed, including hatches, so everything above the hull top is repro. Pounds had a lot of these at one time, all gone now though. Several have been converted back to gun tanks, some more convincingly than others.
