Post 89
Ted, regarding your post 89, what distinguishing features of that Sawbridgeworth 'Commer' convince you its an Albion A.M.463?
Regards Larry

Sorry for the late reply. The vehicle in the IWM photo has a quarter light in the cab, Commers don't have quarter lights. The strip of vents in the side of the bonnet - although only partially visible is too high in it's dimension, the position of the step/running board is wrong for a Commer, the contour or the front wing is wrong So definitely not a Commer. Also the body is the pre-war pattern fitted to Albions. regards TED

This came up in a google search, when searching for something else (as usual).....I have no idea where the picture originated from and if it's period original, or if it's from a movie.....as the V2 seems a bit short and bent, and crosses on the doors seem a popular thing in movies (?)

Alex, the bend is to help with the curved flight path
 You just have to turn the base to aim it before you light the wick.
