That one pic (or two since Mike posted it twice) looks like a Cab 11 C15 with a 2B1 box on it but the picture was developed from the wrong side of the negative since the tail light is on the left hand side.

Nice photos
 

Thanks for posting them Mike.

That first batch look like Bedford QL, Ford WOA2, Bedford OY tanker, Austin K6 behind possibly a Crossley 4x4.

Fitting that the last pics to be posted will be of Monte Cassino...

The rest of the pics are more personal and won't be posted.

I hope you enjoyed the series. I will have another interesting series shortly from a mechanic who took all kinds of pics of the vehicles he worked on. He was an inspector for vehicles being accepted by the military from contractors.
I am quite excited about the family providing me pics to copy. More later.
