However the 'A' looks suspect (slightly tilted) and the registration should be in the Mann & Overton range 'DLT 121' to 'DLT 170'. We have very few where numbers are deliberately changed for some reason. Thumbnail 1 is a Strachan body so the same scene I guess as the main picture. The second thumbnail is BMC??? (edit: BMC 881 or BMC 891?) a series used by Beadmore so probably a Paramount MkIV. /v107697.html edit: BMC501-999 issued Feb 34 to Oct 36 /vehicle_1522341-Beardmore-Paramount-1935.html -- Last edit: 2021-05-30 12:10:29
