WAYNE15071965 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 So I picked this box up at a Car Boot sale today, and I would like to know what vehicle it would go in or on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marmite!! Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 That's the one.. Maybe Saracen & others too?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfire Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 While I could be wrong (the Saracen was in service for about 40 years after all) the stowage diagrams that I have indicate that Bren magazines were stored in the racks behind the rearmost seats and under one of the seats. I don't believe that they ever had a dedicated box for them. Cheers, Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeePig Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Is the fact that the box is painted green, and that particular green, of any significance? trevor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfire Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Good point about the green. It's definitely a post war box, as it has an FV number but as far as I know, all British armoured vehicles had either a silver (early) or white (later) interior, so maybe it was fitted to a soft skin or painted by a previous owner?

sirhc Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Lots of NOS ferret internal bins are green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
