I assume this is the
A4/YB6 Forward control for the
Indian Office. I came to this conclusion by comparing the radiator guards on the first five Thornycroft A-series trucks. From the A6 onwards this part became less massive and looked more like a headlight bracket than a radiator guard.
The last truck is unknown to me. Probably an A4/YB6 or A5/YB6 for Sudan. Both models were delivered in small batches - 7 trucks and one chassis, and 11 trucks and one tanker respectively.
According to my calculations, there are 74 (2 Normal + 72 Forward) chassis and 20 Forward A4/YB6 trucks for the Indian Office in the Thornycroft vehicle registers.
