Page 116 in in Geoff Caverhill's excellent book "The Commer Story" shows an identical model to this, shot from the rear quarter view and the wellside is identical. My workshop manuals also show this body. The Commer Superpoise shown on the ccmv.fotopic link above is the heavier version of the B series - a B469 (4/5 tonner - 6 cyl - Humber Super Snipe based motor) This is a lighter version - 4 cyl - Humber Hawk based motor. -- Last edit: 2007-08-29 12:44:02
