David,

To quote from the wartime guide of Vauxhall and Bedford vehicles, and expand on your list;
OWST 5 ton swb tipper, military front.
OWLE 5 ton lwb flat platform, milt front
OWLD 5 ton lwb dropside, milt front
OWB 32 seater bus, Duple body, civvy front

all of these are civilian models to a Min. of War Transport licence.
