The coachwork is not the same as the factory coachwork shown in the link, but the model was available as chassis only and the body could have been built by a small firm. Allowing for the front damage, the bonnet and radiator look right, and those are certainly Morris wheels with the hub caps long gone.

Sunbar ◊ 2017-06-04 12:37	Agreed it is a 1935 Morris Light Van 10-cwt http://www.morrisregister.co.uk/35twvan/ As said would be supplied as chassis, front end and scuttle; the appearance when enlarged is all the same. Another, also suggested by johnfromstaffs as being the 1935 10-cwt van, found here... /vehicle.php?id=1040948
