cortina.chris ◊ 2012-01-07 18:13	Great find but would it be a Commer or Sunbeam? Or was there ever a Sunbeam imp van ? Ive come across the Sunbeam badge on the larger Commer 1500 PB type vans and think ive seen sunbeam cobs somewhere too.

But googling gives no direct hits anywhere, and Sunbeam-ised export badging was always as far as I can tell a red background which should show something, even in this blurry photo. So I think stick to Commer unless/until we find proof of Sunbeam.
