Carrier Boxes?
A weekend swap meet find. But are they carrier? Sure looks like it too me but I am no expert. Box on the right is still felt lined.

Boxes
They have the correct brass over-lock Ford used.
They look like the two on the left. Here's a pic of one of Ian Styles' carriers: More pics here.

Carrier Boxes
Greame
Your felt lined box looks like Part No. 625 described as Box Assembly Iron Rations Cooking Utensils. It should be 10 1/2 " high by 6 5/8 " square and felt lined. It could also be 625C or 626 Box Assembly Heat Unit. The other one could be either Part No. 581/2 Assy Box Rations and should be 12 1/ " wide x 16 1/8 " deep x 12 1/8 " high OR Part No. 581/5 Box MG Stores Assy and should be 9 3/4 " wide x 16 3/4 " deep x 12 1/16 " high. These last two boxes should have four holes in the base to mount on the rear of the Carrier. If you look closely you should see a part number usually on the upper rim where the lid is. Bob |

Keefy just posted over me. 581/2 & 581/5 are the second and last box on the rear. The box on top of 581/5 should not be there. The rations box lives inside the Carrier Bob |

Dimensions
Heres the dimensions.
Top box 6 5/8 square x 10 1/2 deep looks like a tucker box (no provision for mounting the dog tho). Lower box 8 5/8 wide x 10 5/8 deep x 8 9/16 high. Both have 5 mounting holes and I cant see any sign of a part number. |

Carrier box
Also the box on top of the bin on the back of the carrier on the right hand side is Not a bin that belongs to a carrier, I have no idea what it was used on but it is not a carrier box,
Regards Ron
