Unusual to see a Dennis as a removal van .
When I first saw it from side I thought bet this is an Albion .

290 films to look out for, plus the TV stuff! Did he ever stop working?

Seeing JCB’S note, I looked up “Cockleshell Heroes”, remembering the old Spike Milligan jokes with David Lodge. He was in it, but his part was “Fish Lorry Driver”. Not a hero at that point then.

In May 1940 Churchill sent him and his part time soldier gang the Queen Victoria Rifles over from London to defend Calais to the death .
They spent two days fighting and the survivors five years in Poland as a POW's (where Kydd organised the concert party surprisingly!)
They were called the weekenders !

Post war it was apparently compulsory for Kydd to have a bit part in black and white war movies ! :)

No complaints from me, I only went for V because of the windscreen shape.

Happy Birthday JFS , how do people know ?
Im my minds eye I had you as a retired metal basher from the Midlands living in Stoke on Trent :D
But on your Profile you appear to be the model for Stephen Yardley from Howards Way :lol:

^ Thanks.

Retired, yes. Smoke-on-Stench, no. Metal basher, they used to refer to GKN as “Midlands metal basher” indeed, but they didn’t know half of it. Yardley? No Smethwick, but I grew up in the agrarian centre of the county of Stafford. Sailing, YES!

From pictures, Dennis adverts and period photographs, I cannot separate the later Dennis Pax IV (sidelights moved over the headlights) or an early (1966-68?) Pax V. More Pax V changes appeared after 'G' reg. I believe.

edit: the Pax V was introduced early 1963 therefore unless there was some overlap, the Pax V was 1960-63 and likely had the lower mounted side-lights.

Pax V.
