Through a floor hatch inside a vehicle. In the centre is the top of the compressor, the ribs to dissipate heat. To the bottom can be seen the short cardan shaft / universal joint to the radiator. The pipe with the wire wrapped around it will have holes drilled in it - this disperses the contents of the fire extinguisher over the engine, the wire wrapped around it is the pyrocord, this triggers the fire extinguishers when there is excess heat. Negative WMP7793 circa October 1956, probably at Met-Camm Saltley works.
