Sunbar ◊ 2008-11-22 15:21	Not a 1956 Morris ½-ton Series III for the following reasons. Roof-line is continuous unlike the Series III which had the cab as the saloon with a separate raised roof over the load area. The shape of the windows in the rear door is wrong the Series III had 'D' shaped, rounded windows. 1956 Morris ½-ton Series III... However, there looks to be a fuel filler on the side, behind the open cab door not present on the Series III van but one does exist on the later Austin A55 van. This plus the other details including the raised form on the roof confirms it as an Austin A55 Van ½-ton from 1957 to 1962. -- Last edit: 2008-11-22 15:25:18
