This was typical of the time with bare chassis available to be pored over.

Nice ambulance, and it seems that they had several K2/Ys to work on.

David,

It is a Vauxhall, could be a 14hp perhaps, and the census number is from a group of impressed vehicles.


I see you have edited at same time I posted, yes J type 14 hp, does look like that.

Default Ta!

Yes, think it's an impressed one though the Luton plant did produce a number of wartime 1940 Model J-types for the Ministry of Supply as staff cars.

Any thoughts on any of the other photos please? Especially the flat fronted Bedfords as I assume that the heavier ones are OX[C] not the OY series.

No idea what the Wolseley is at this stage. I think it may be a 1940 Model 12/48 four-cylinder??? Not a 14/60 six-cylinder
