More to come
I hoping that by posting up details of the Scout a little more can be learned along the way as well as being of some benefit to Lynn, Ben, Nigel and everyone else who is restoring a British Mk1 Carrier.
Let me know if there is anything you would especially like to see a pic of. Apart from the bottom of the hull which is two feet under stored parts I will do my best. Cheers Phill

Your Engine cover side plates will be A.P.,at least on the left side, where you have no outer armour. The Bren plates are about 4mm down to the lower engine cover rails. I cant help withe the numbers except that I have observed dated bits (1938) that must have been in stock, that was at some point used in either new construction of, or the repair of a U.C. of post 1940 production.
How a plate was marked may well have varied from one manufacturer (of carriers) to another, in the U.K. Are you able to make your photos any larger? I will respond to your emails soon. Lynn.

Size matters !
Sorry about the size - that's what the Iphone spits out. My DSLR had the oppositr problem and spits out images too big to post up.
I'm open to suggestions. Lynn are the pics I emailed similarly tiny ? Cheers Phill

Lynn, DSLR = Digital Singa Lens Reflex, Digital camera you can change the lenses on.
Phill, I have an image resizing program on my computer, I right click on a photo, select resize image, check the size required and click OK. I then get a duplicate picture with small or custom in it's ID. The programm was in my last computer and when it wasn't in this computer I asked the teck at the computer shop and he e-mailed it to me.

My long winded method
I have a 5 megapixel digital camera. At 5megapixel, sometimes they will upload to the forum, sometimes they wont. If I change the setting to take them at 3megapixels they post every time. I mostly take them and save them at 5 m.p. I reduce them by emailing them to myself, and save them in a resized file, for posting.
