Therefore Thames. Back shortly. -- Last edit: 2022-03-13 17:24:11

As far as the additional windows go, they do not lead one in any particular coachbuilder’s direction. Plain glass with a rubber gasket, could, imo, be any local garage. So Thames E83W van with additional windows. -- Last edit: 2022-03-13 17:25:20
