It has a lot in common with this 1937 Leyland 'DJH 523' here the sister fire engine to (the one that) had a starring role in the 1962 film Go to Blazes. /vehicle_785668-Leyland-Tigress-FT-1932.html Enlarged details to compare bulkhead, windscreen and ladder/support details etc. Another similar 1937 Leyland FT https://www.flickr.com/photos/zacks_classic_cars/8799137306
