johnfromstaffs ◊ 2021-02-12 17:37	Yes, I think you’re right. Maybe they removed the towing hitch and left the plate where it was. I thought maybe it was used for delivering carpets or something long, but you wouldn’t see the plate with that door open. That olive green, ex military? -- Last edit: 2021-02-12 17:41:38
jcb ◊ 2021-02-12 18:11	I was thinking ex military. They had plates as normal AFAIK -- Last edit: 2021-02-12 18:34:32
