I thought there was a rule known as "don't post images of cars seen through windows, unless it's a rare car or it's clearly visible for a given amount of time and not blurred". |

Well, one out of three ain't bad ... I think it's a LAD-cab Leyland. I thought Dodge at first, but I can almost see the large Leyland badging above the main grille which seems to be wearing a radiator muff. |

LAD-cab Leyland agreed, Beaver or Badger I guess. Pantechnicons tend to be light-weights I think. Comet unlikely (but not impossible) with full length door and heavier. -- Last edit: 2012-01-07 20:32:23 |

Sorry but this vehicle is not a pantechnicon or any type of Leyland , its an Albion Victor or a Chieftain with a luton body , Dodge and Comet had only short door LAD cabs , prob a ``Victor ``as these were extra long for light bulky loads, supplied as chassis /cab for luton body or as chassis /front panel for a Pantechnicon , Alan. -- Last edit: 2013-12-26 00:07:10 |
