Commer 1500/2500 Series III [PA], 1966-67 and 1500/2500 [PB] 1968-73 later named 'Spacevan' [PB] 1973-77 all visually the same. |

Looks a UK spec - orange indicators. US did get some early PBs eg /vehicle_47177-Commer-1500-PB-1968.html , /vehicle.php?id=604800 but info is very scarce about which models and exactly when. I've seen a passing reference to early 60s sales as Sunbeam, but very vague. |

Its good dsl, that you think it could be UK vehicle as was I questioning myself how it got its higher roof. The high-roofed conversion was also seen here /vehicle_129861-Commer-1500-FC-1964.html Later the Post Office had even taller vans built on the Dodge Spacevan. Also the dash-panel does look to have a RHD instrument binnacle. -- Last edit: 2015-11-08 17:12:55 |

Only later seen the body width behind the cab and recognised as a camper van. Roof is similar to this one http://www.curbsideclassic.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Commer-motorhome-2.jpg Also not the same as a highwayman conversion but very similar. |

Was sold in Canada with Commer Badges and that type of camper body so presume came from there |
