Hi all!
Thank you for the warm Welcome. I think it is time for a few pictures. Michael, I think you know the carrier actually better than I. The upper hull number is CB24552, the lower hull number in the rear is 24547. A lot of parts have the sign FMCo 44. Until now I had no time to find the engine number, as I said it was -8° C. In the side of the carrier is CT 14164 located. Is that right, which range in numbers can apply to the vehicle? What role may have the carrier had? The big box on the rear is it installed right? What are the brackets? At the feet of the Gunner is a holder made of wood? Is the back rest by the Gunners seat original, I do not think so? How would that look like faucets and speedometer? The carrier has a lever with a linkage for the starter. A second lever with linkage could be for the fuel valve. I have to try to get copies of the manuals for the UC2 MkII *.

wow she sure is complete, has lots of the right bits.... the gunners seat i am not sure if that is original or repro... i think the Mk2* had a fixed seat which was in a raised position mounted to the centre bulkhead....as pictured below
 the back box on the rear armour i think mounts so the lid faces out and the clasps along the top...again i could be wrong.  please forgive this image it is a model but its the best i could find on my laptop

Manfred your carrier is very close to mine judging by the rear hull number. Mine has Fomoco 44 in several places. I gather mine is a No2 MK2*. As Richard said your rear box is wrong. But your gunners seat looks like mine. But overall yours is far more complete than mine when I got it. Here are a few shots. I've built mine as 'Welsh Guard Stowage' Ron

Your Mk. II*
Your start handle is correct, as is the fuel tank change over lever.
