I don't ever recall seeing a Morris 10 pickup before, although coachbuilders could buy in "chassis" form. The pickup on this car doesn't look right to me, especially where it meets the rear wings. It could have started life as a car I supose. I seem to remember the posts office using 10's as delivery vans, but may be wrong.

the back end looks to be similar in style to those seen on Model A Ford pickups. I wonder if the back of the cab is a neat adaptation using the back of a saloon's rear body? the moulding around the back doesn't line up with that on the doors, which is what made me wonder .. course I could be miles off Smile
