Carrier Boxes?

[gjamo]

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.

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:

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.

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

If there's a rations box involved, He's quick!

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.

Yes they are carrier boxes both of them belong inside the rear of the carrier, Ron

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,
