I was given a book last week called Sure As The Sunrise a history of Albion vehicles and in the ww2 military section appeared this photo of a model BY1 produced for the Air Ministry. I have seen this photo before but not had a copy it is intrigueing because of the cab, i thought at first it was a standard civilian type but i can find nothing similer in any of my Albion photos or publications so suspect it was built to ministry specs. What i am trying to find out is is my assumption correct re the cab and how many like this were built, the tank and rear mudguards are standard civilian but who supplied these, Butterfield of Shipley is one name that springs to mind
cheers
