Not the longest wheelbase I believe (179" only on J7) therefore 167" wheelbase available on J5, J6 and J7.

Nothing special I think probably safe to call it J5. It looks to have accident damage to the door and missing a lollypop indicator on the left wing.

The other Bedford has wooden suicide doors and a canopy roof attached to the bed.

Could they be cutaway versions built with the factory windscreen but no cab as such? The famous decorated Bedfords in Pakistan seem to be built that way, with coachbuilt cabs:
