johnfromstaffs ◊ 2020-02-19 21:25	K8 I think. Walls ice cream colours so specialist coachwork.

Animatronixx ◊ 2020-02-19 21:50	Yes, looks to be the one! I already wondered how they could have such a big event without a single ice cream van. Walls used ice cream vans by different coachbuilders, at least by Smith, Cummins and Morrison. Not so much specialist coachwork from the outside, as it seems, more interior conversion. That means I can't tell who made it.
