I have seen several 2B1 bodies in the UK with with the same holes, two rows next to each wheel box. I had thought that they may have been added in civi use ie for a small crane but it would appear not............. any ideas guys ?

Take a look at Transporting the Vickers Machine Gun - the 15-cwt Truck - I'd say the holes were for "stowage division boards"?

Hope this helps,
