Here's the two pages on the MkII carrier from Gregg's Military Vehicle Profiles. There's some useful info here. I broke each page into three images to retain the details for you.

Great photos Dave. The only trouble with this new photo display system is now we can't look at the pics' in any detail. We used to be able to zoom them in and examine then in up close.

Save them to your hard drive then look at them with your picture viewer and blow them up there. I use ACDSEE and haven't seen anything that works any better.
I might as well post the pages on the MK I Carrier too so you can compare the differences.

I'm attaching 2 more pics, she is still covered with snow but I think we are to get warmer weather over X-mas, so I can get the serial # verified. I'm getting excited to work on it. She will go in the shop in the spring and won't have to be outside anymore.
The wooden block I hope is original. My MK1 can rest there someday but I was hoping that carriers came with an original permanent mount. I have some pics of a carrier I saw at the legion last summer, going to post them later, it's just beautiful. I'm planning to start on the armor pieces first, getting dimensions so I can cut each piece out. I don't have a compressor yet for sandblasting the hull, but I have a big pot. I'll have to add a steering wheel to the list of parts I need. Wonder if that same wheel was used on trucks of that time period? Phil

gear shift gate
Hi Phil, I just noticed that your carrier has a piece cut out of the gearhift gate, any idea why that was done? Why do i ask? mine is cut in the exact same place.
regards nick
