Bedford military-front and civvy-front types

[David_Hayward (RIP)]

Yes, these trailers were 'assembled' by Pearsons and then the company acquired stocks post-war which they then sold off onto the civvy market. I was sent some years ago a copy of various classifieds by a farmer guy that bought a CMP or two from Pride & Clarke aka 'Slide & Shark', south London...P&C sold off Chevies and Fords as seen, but to go with your say former FAT for agricultural work, you could buy a host of ex-military trailers from numerous fly-by-night people.

This photo is I seem to recall a fomer military trailer.
