Probably another Bedford OB, but will need some digging. |

None, I’ve been slightly involved elsewhere. |

Start point, please read Sunbar’s comment re filler cap, which may help. /vehicle_452156-Bedford-WTB-1938.html As I see it, we only have a choice of chassis between WTB and OB for new deliveries, and Sunbar appears to have nailed that, although my concern was centred (😀) upon the wheels. The roof rack looks a bit unusual, was it a sun saloon? Perhaps a final concern is whether it might have been a rebodied OWB? There is no owner’s name or number plate visible, so that line of enquiry is stuffed, but something I have seen somewhere, and not a long time ago, concerns which firms used the livery shown? No, belay that suggestion, I was thinking of Royal Blue, and their livery on the OB looks nothing like that. -- Last edit: 2020-05-06 09:28:45 |

Thanks jfs, I've been thinking WTB based on the (earlier fewer apertures) wheels but was unsure if they could carry over to early OBs?.. I missed the radiator cap which seals it for me as a WTB chassis re-bodied post war. The body looks also to be shorter, therefore as the WTB, and eliminates the OWB in my view. Not been able to locate the actual vehicle or similar livery and my list of preserved OBs has gone awol. So without more expert knowledge, SteveA perhaps, a WTB chassis re-bodied post war. -- Last edit: 2020-05-06 13:58:23 |
