Hi
Any ideas about this van?

I wondered
Ford Y van or Jowett Seven van.

E83W Fordson or Thames (depending on year).

Modesty almost prevented me from posting a link: http://www.e83w.co.uk/

Hi
Thanks Rick, I hadn't picked that because I felt the grill looked flat and scooped top to bottom rather than slightly bulging forward.

It's probably had a nerf, if you look at some restored vans and pickups, the grille isn't as curved as it once was.

Looks like it has the steel pick-up body?

Hi
I know it is a small image, but, if you ctrl+ to 500% you can just about see the highlight showing the full length roof line.

Agreed I think it is a van (but I did have to squint a bit!)

Agreed, a second look with much squinting and you can make out the roof line.
