chris40 ◊ 2007-11-10 18:02	This is the 1954-7 version, with the chrome bezels and the 'firewood': http://www.classic-fords.co.uk/photo_ford_squire_100e_estate.htm The only later one I can find has seen better days, but you can see it has no 'wood' and painted bezels: http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C29323?pt=pf

Also i think the fuel filler can be seen on the drivers side behind the door which would mean its a smartened up Thames van.The rear window looks to be divided meaning it has van doors rather than escort/squire tailgate. -- Last edit: 2012-02-07 21:29:06
