			That is a rectangular piece of 1/4 inch plywood that covers the radiator opening between the driver and gunner. The washer shown is riveted onto the ply, and a knurled thumbscrew holds it to the opening. I have found the identical dished washer (less the 3 rivet holes) used on crates even today, so they still exist somewhere. |

|  Board 
			
			The blanking board is a 1/4" piece of plywood that goes between the driver and gunner to cover the hole where you can see the rad. The little metal, piece goes in the centre and a special bolt secures it to the plate. Peter |

			Thanks for your replies friends. I guess it was only used in winter like the canvas rad cover of the CMP'S ? Cheers. Robert

			Not restricted to cold weather use.  It assists to decrese the time = fuel required to reach operating temps.
