Default Tray

Rusty & Geoff
The tray is mainly timber. Steel brackets hold the steel edge all the way round and the curved front quarter panels are attached to the stakes.
Now you've got me thinking, I am not sure how it goes together, I will check.
It is a standard factory stakeside.
In this case even the stakes appear original except for one I had to replace.

Cliff.
It is at least a 42 model and the convoy lights on the headlights are standard army, the long ones are normal commercial.
No mounting holes for the long ones, only the single hole for the light you see.
I can't date it by the engine number as it was an army replacement with no serial number stamped. Have to recheck the casting date but I think it is 43.
I will have a look at my cowl tags in the light of day and post some pics.

Col.
