But this is in the USA... Were these sold in the USA??? ![]() |

AFAIK no, but this is unmistakeably a PB. Whether Commer, Dodge or Fargo, however ... |

Certainly [PB] Commer (possibly Dodge or Fargo?) the badge over the rear doors makes it 1968-71 edit: Comments on this website suggests the PA/PB were available in Canada as a Commer badged van. "Apart from yourself, I have been in touch with a large number of people from Canada who have contacted me looking for help or info on their Commers, and I have many historical images of Commers in the US and Canada so I understand they were widely sold. When I said it was amazing that THESE were sold in Canada, I was referring specifically to the PA,PB vans. Having owned 2, and having had 4 in the family" http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/commer-vehicles/message/536 also an Ontario licensed Commer PA/PB here http://66.129.69.181/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=5117&whichpage=2 -- Last edit: 2012-05-31 12:14:22 |

Got a feeling they didn't become badged as Dodges until the later 1970s and this looks like an older vehicle - perhaps a bit too new to destroy if it was a Dodge so I'd bet Commer. |

Seem to recall when they were sold in North America they were badged Sunbeam |

I've come across the Sunbeam suggestion too, but no real info on when or with what model name - just PB seems too dull for US or CDN. |

There was a model called the Sunbeam highwayman but that had a camper body fitted has opposed to the mini bus body on the one above so not sure if the one above was also called a highwayman. |

Labelled as made-for-US so we can find it again if/when better info available. It has a friend now - /vehicle.php?id=604800 . |
