All I can tell is that your carrier is a mark I. That piece of flat iron that is laying in the battery box is the latch that holds the rear seat in the up position. So don't throw anything away that you mite think is garbage till you have finished the restoration. I just had an auction sale at this place I bought and now I have seen some military pieces that were here and I thought was junk and sold for next to nothing so watch it. Good luck, it's a fun hobby even if you aren't necessarily the military type. I did mine last year and it's in our town parade this July. It's nice to see the vets that remember them tell their stories. My interest is that we have always had a few carriers around for fun and work. So they are sort of sentimental in that respect. Mine I purchased when I was 16 from a farmer in St.Charles Ontario. (39) years ago.
