Default C8AX Ambulance

Clues to identify the location and date:- Soldiers hats (lemon squeezers) have a coloured band which identifies their Corps. The cap badge identifies the Corps (or Regiment if Infantry). The number plate has a symbol centre bottom - 1941-46 was a white diamond on a black plate. 1951-56 was a white comma on a black plate

The ambulance has an 18 inch extension at the tail of the chassis for the longer deck. The tailgate is a folding step. Upper stretcher frames fold down for seated cases (as with LH side in pic while RH frame is raised). Tare weight is 2 ton 15 cwt versus 2 ton 10 cwt for GS truck
