One of these Morris/Austin: /vehicle_42664-Austin-45-1961.html Or Spanish clone, like Sava A-504 http://www.autoclasico.es/files/imgs/variantes/web/777_Sava_A504.jpg -- Last edit: 2015-05-08 15:04:30 |

I'm not sure that the SAVA-Austin trucks (es) were sold outside Spain. So unless this scene wasn't shot in Poland, it's more likely a British "lorry" .gif ";)") _____ (For the record, this truck could also be a 1965+ 8-tonne FH-800 -es- if a SAVA-Austin. But it seems to have only single headlamps) -- Last edit: 2015-05-08 18:23:44 |

In the 60s and 70s there were at least few Polish-Spanish automotive trade contracts, which on our side meant for example import of Pegaso trucks and Seats. Also SAVA itself many times presented its vehicles at the trade fairs in Poznań. That's why I wouldn't exclude the "Spanish connection". Except if some design details clearly say that it can't be Sava. |

Its the SAVA-Austin version of the Austin FF I believe. I needed SAVA-Austin trucks from eLMeR (edited) - It didn't quite match the Austin but the out of focus picture I believe it should be the SAVA. Painted headlamp bezels not fitted headlamps look raised not recessed as the Austin with the early grille and twin bars I think used here. Other defining points not well seen but probable - small (lower) square turn indicators and black painted horizontal grill bar just visible in the thumbnail. -- Last edit: 2015-05-09 12:56:08 |

@ Weasel1984: Thanks for that automotive history info. Trade contracts between a ultranationalist dictatorship and a Communist state: money never bother with politics If a SAVA-Austin, then indeed a A 504 as already said. Which would make it the 2nd in the IMCDb. (@ Sunbar: you use the same link as the one I gave in my previous comment. It would have certainly be better to give some other source so we could widen the scope of possible comparisons) -- Last edit: 2015-05-09 00:30:45 |

@ eLMeR - apologies for wrongly identifying your link,  My knowledge of SAVA trucks is minimal however I can say it doesn't look like the original Austin product to me but the picture is not clear enough to be certain. SAVA Austin photographs about half-way down. ![[Image: savaaustin2.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/558/savaaustin2.jpg) I'm less certain today but the pictures are equally likely to be Austin or SAVA Austin for me, neither can be actually ruled out... |

No problem, I don't claim the ownership of that link I think I misunderstood what you were saying. And I just meant (and really believe) that the more we have external sources, the more we can identify vehicles... |

If impossible to distinguish them with this pic, then let's take the original British model. |
