[Hanno Spoelstra]

What exactly does a Morris-Commercial "TRACTOR 4X4 A/T 6Pdr CONVERTED" look like?

Was this the C8/AT?

what you see is what you get its a WWII Morris commercial 4x4 guntractor A/T truck badge taken of a 1944 truck that was broken up for sparers last year

My immediate reaction was that this was a plate off of a 1943-4 rebuild by Morris Commercial Cars Ltd in Adderley Park, Birmingham. I then thought that this was originally a 2-pounder Portee or Predictor that was rebuilt to either "normal" or airportable FAT. But now I wonder if it was a rebuild on a C8/FAT?

The photos I had from the Parachute Regiment museum came to mind:
