Yes mate the very same it is riveted to the centre bulkhead and has the kinks in it where it meets the armour squares in the corners.
Cheers, thought for a moment I was going to have to jump in my car and pop down to the Bovington tank museum.

I'm a friend of the museum and I've been there hundreds of times Richard and I've never seen one, and I've been privvy to the reserve collection. There must be another option between Dorset and the North East! Ron

The Tank museum is certainly worth a visit if you come down this way on holiday or something. It is supposed to be a TANK museum, but some exhibits have ended up there by default and not strictly correct if somewhat related.
Here are the carriers. Ron
