Going by the census number it looks like the Wolesley is from another group of impressed vehicles.

David,
The first one is a MWV 15cwt van, with census no. V 770776, from Cont. No. V3904, followed by a OXD 30cwt GS truck, there are two more MW trucks behind and I think they are both MWV vans as you can tell by the canopy on rear body.

This is refering to photo no. 2. Cannot get enough detail to confirm whether photo no. 1 shows MWV or MWD.

I noticed the 'L' plates there displayed. Those plates are STILL in use here , over 60 years on. Yellow overall with a black L . The modern version here a plastic stick on windscreen setup . I recall the cheap cardboard L plates down in Tasmania in the early 1970's, they were issued when you applied for a learner drivers permit. If they got wet or rained on they turned into a soggy mess ! I got the permit , but never went for the test .. drove around anyway ! Car was a 1953 Anglia with a Cortina OHV engine fitted. Student days .. one day the car came to a nasty end .. head on prang with a Ford Falcon ..ouch ( me not driving , in pass. seat ). The Anglia was concertina'd , no seat belts . Mike

Thanks guys! There are some more photos but I left them out as they are the same vehicles but from different angles.
As to Photos 1 and 2, note the MWs..MWV?? have the full screens and in # 2they have the aero screens. Any idea which MWs they are please? MWV and MWC respectively? I hope that i can get the numbers off when the pix arrive. Oh! What DOES "TC MT" mean? Training Corps Motor Transport? |

I have just got to post this pix of two lovely ladies, with the L-Cpl doing the teaching. Note the tax disc I think it is in the windscreen. I'll bet the photographer picked the best of the bunch to get a close up of! Very sexist I know!

There are several Austin 10 Tilly utility pick-up photos in the collection as well as the 8AP army tourers. If you want good quality images then you can buy them from David Riley at info@minibusales.co.uk either on a CD or prints, though CD is better/easier for hm. They are very reasonable too! I can send thumbnails only for copyright reasons.
