C151 18pr

Here are some pictures of a box restoration I have carried out for a friend with a Morris Commercial CDSW. They represent markings used in the mid 30's.



The boxes themselves were in really good condition, apart from various sides being painted grey when they were used to store various random Nato parts. All the cradles had been removed so I re-created these parts from scratch using the witness marks from where the old cradles had been . Many thanks go to Tim G and NZL1A1 for their assistance in this project. I just hope I have the correct markings for the contents circa 1936.
Cheers

A couple more pictures showing the reverse and interior of the box. The chains retaining the lid are original.



All stencils are hand cut. The labels were copied from originals on the inside of one of the lids.

Cheers
