It has the look of a 1938 Austin to me (Flashlot when applied to taxis), the prewar 1936-38 10-cwt Jowett van having a radiator divided with a vertical strip. So I found this 1938 Austin Light 12/4 10cwt van, although I see some similarity I cannot say how they compare in size and details, bacause of the small picture size... ![[Image: austin-124-10cwt-van-1938.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/558/austin-124-10cwt-van-1938.jpg) source: http://www.liftruck.co.uk/rover-95-and-morris-oxford-for-sale.htm |

^^ Thanks, johnfromstaffs I hesitated in posting my comment because I was very uncertain. There are more Austin van designs just prewar than I realised. edit: Twelve Van, 12 Van or 12/4 Van? We appear to have variations again in naming. -- Last edit: 2016-09-16 17:34:35 |

The greengrocer had one when I was a kid. |

^ Our egg delivery man - I think he was a Warwickshire poultry farmer who tried doing weekly rounds in south Birmingham suburbs in late-60s - had an all-over grey Vanden Plas Princess 3-litre estate - one of only 7 made. |

Yup, and above my head to resolve except we seem to have reached a stage where everything 12/4 or 12/6 (whatever version/body) is up to 1937 and everything 1938+ is Twelve. May not be bulletproof, but workable. |

Its a solution to the problem, dsl. .gif ":)") Front wings on the van do seem to be 1938-1939 (lower at the front) also the windscreen appears deeper thab this 1934 Austin 12/4 Van |
