John Sgwar Posted March 26, 2024 Posted March 26, 2024 I’m in the process of restoring a 1945 Leyland Hippo. When the time comes to register etc(hopefully next year) will I be able to register with the old army number. I have located a plate on the chassis with the said registration.

As far as I know this is not possible. 1949 type military registrations, such as 66YY23, are only used by the UK armed forces, although the format of their numbers has changed over time; when such vehicles are disposed of by the military they have to be re-registered with a civilian number. Given that it's a 1945 vehicle it was presumably sold some time ago, which should mean that it has already been given a civilian number at the time of the original disposal sale. Quote
