Degsy Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Definitely not a TF, that was the last of the line, mid 50's. Could be a TA, I had one more than 40 years ago, a real classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Mark, Great photos, wish I had gone now instead of working . Now don't ask me about cars, not my line at at all barring the odd one, but I could tell you chapter and verse on the Austin fire engines or Bedford MW :-D That Morris Z GPO van ..........they were in service when I was a kid and the Royal Mail ones, nice to see he has all the bits and pieces in the back, wonderful stuff.

Richard Farrant Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 How olds this morry comical. Looks like a model PV. They made them from 1939, suspended during the war, then restarted 45-53. The front looks very dated compared to postwar models so could be an early one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ian2b Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Had a great day at Chatham and will add this one to my 2009 events list and will be taking the Dodge WC63 next year. The show had a great atmosphere and the singers,comedians,reenactors and groups were great. Just a few of the 581 pictures we took. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
