I can likely straighten that.

The other track is Centaur or Cromwell and some Covenanter or Crusader. 

That's the problem when you get otters to write books. 😏

Yes, I think those are the WD-L-T1 with the original small aperture, the one with the larger opening being the T1A.

Hi Peter, that would be great thanks.

I'm looking for a tow hook and spring, preferably from a 15 cwt or similar, similar to the picture. 

At the very least, a hook, as the spring can be made.

Centurion, possibly others.

Stainless here.

I don't believe that is a MkII LRC. They were 4x4. This one is 4x2 with five stud wheels intended for 9.25 - 16 tyres but with 9.00 - 16 American NDCC fitted. These won't easily fit onto normal eight stud British wheels but will onto the lighter ones intended for 9.25 - 16s.

Those are Firestone Ground Grip 9.25-16 British or Canadian tyres. They are a directional tread.

Spares for what? 

Is there anybody in the Macclesfield area who could collect something for me and either post it on to me or hold it until we can meet up? Thanks in advance, Adrian

I'm beginning to suspect it is ROF Radcliffe as well.

Istr 2900 kg.

Brass, unpainted. The book says they are to be kept bright.

This is the page from the Canadian parts list.

I came to the same conclusion. My 1942 gun is ROF N, which I assume is Nottingham as I know they made Bofors but it could also be Newport. 

I have some gun parts marked ROF RD. Obviously a Royal Ordnance Factory but I have not been able to id which. Nothing in the lists I have seen fit.  

Bear in mind the parts list was to enable the ordering of parts by the user so anything not available seperately didn't usually list the part number.

This is from the British parts list.

Canadian made parts usually were prefixed CTL so I would say Dagenham, though the box might have been made elsewhere as Dagenham was likely the assembly plant.

FM Co is Ford Motor Company. TL1184A is a bren ammunition box for a Universal Carrier.
