That looks like a Commer Cob -- Last edit: 2006-07-09 11:08:44 |

The red bus in the background is a London Transport AEC Regal IV RF class with MCW body |

I think this is far more likely to be a Hillman Husky. Side windows are just visible I believe, the two-tone paint work is typical for the Husky as here. ![]() It also has a 'GB' plate on the rear indicating it has been on the continent less likely for a van. -- Last edit: 2007-07-22 14:38:03 |

But it doesn't have the overriders on the bumper, which differentiate the Hillmans from the Commers... And the rear window somehow looks different... I'd go for Commer Cob. |

The rear door was I think identical between estate car and the van therefore window would be the same size. Possibly the over-rider were an option, looking at all the other IMCDb listings Huskies are shown both with and without. Hillman Husky (in this case series II, the brochure is series I) without over-riders, also applied to the front bumper on this car. ![]() |

And the two-tone paint is absolutely in favour of the Hillman, indeed. Things aren't really easy, are they? ![]() |

Easy no, not really. ![]() Another listing /vehicle_72323-Hillman-Husky-1960.html is I think a Commer Cob. |

I won't disagree ![]() |
