Box, Spare Parts

[Grant Bowker]

I don't think it is for a Chorehorse as I read the first two items on the parts list as being a fan belt and a water inlet elbow gasket. Near the bottom of the parts list photo there seems to be an oil filter cartridge listed, another part I don't think of as Chorehorse...
There is also a listing for magneto ____ lead.

Right or wrong, I think of the Chorehorse and WS19 spare parts boxes as having the contents list inside the lid for protection from weather and impact damage.

This isn't much to go on, but I think whatever it is for had a water cooled engine and a magneto ignition system (unless the vehicle and mounted equipment shared the spare parts box).

To help with the guessing game, is the whole thing one assembly or is it several pieces that you grouped for the photo? If it is all one, I'd guess it was designed to fit in a specific shaped space. Also, the amount of fabrication suggests either early production or limited production - before attitudes changed to "stamp them out by the thousand". Or, is the parts list on the inside of a lid that covers an opening that is smaller than the whole side of the box?

Maybe the above will suggest something useful to let sombody actually identify it for you. I'll need more free time to go into manuals to see if any of the readable part numbers jump out at me.
