I assume from what Cliff…Keith...and Grant have contributed..It's also a Bedford QL. Troop Carrier.

Can you tell me if that loading door and entry step just behind the cab was an Airforce mod..or standard Troop Carrier..?
Hi,
As Grant says, this is a normal troop carrier body on the QLT, same as the ones used by the army. The lettering on the door is TYPE 1300 which means it is designated as a "3 ton Standard Tender".
