wally dugan Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 the number PB 861 is not a military registration number or contract number but the series of PB is a surrey registration number your vehicle may have been used by one of the government departments during the war sorry but this is all I can add Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Farrant Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 PB861 is a fleet number of the Petroleum Board who distributed fuel in the 1940's. I know this is only a model but it depicts the markings as seen on photos; https://www.oxforddiecast.co.uk/products/bedford-owlc-tanker-petroleum-board-76bd021 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
