Thanks Richard

Interesting ... that contract includes some GS and house type wireless vehicles also ... God only knows what this one was . Sadly, I don't have the Z number as the bonnet is missing ... it doesn't appear to have had the towing setup on it . The only clue as to its previous use is: On the grill , is hand painted "Q 5 " in large size script .
