Something unusual?? I don't recognise the shape, but I'm too young etc. Again possibly film footage rather than archive - anyone recognise it?

As that link from jfs to a 1955 brochure is still working over 4 years later, I've captured the pictures

This is the back of the Seddon-

Agreed not the Seddon and Bedford K is a possibility by the rear wheel design.

The depth of the roof and back shape suggests to me it could be a converted ambulance body but I have not seen one with that squared off rear wheel aperture.

Yes I thought it had a ambulance look about it.

Not the Seddon 'Twenty-Five' 25cwt van which had a specific fibreglass body, Bedford K is more likely.
