johnfromstaffs ◊ 2018-02-12 08:30	Maybe the earlier model, based on the Minx “magnificent”

Link to "archive.commercialmotor.com" I think the front wing could be 'home-made' also obviously a window conversion possibly post war?
Sunbar ◊ 2019-11-20 12:53	Based on the Minx Magnificent either Commer 8cwt van 1936-1937 or 1937-1939 Commer Supervan 8cwt. Supervan on the right had the later Magnificent radiator grille and full width bumper in place of two-part divided front bumper. Impossible to say from the rear if the earlier van or face-lifted Supervan. Its possible the earlier van had smaller hub caps, if the photographs are accurate, suggesting the movie van was from 1936-37. -- Last edit: 2019-11-20 12:54:05
