This is my dad's 1972 Bedford fire engine, it is a TK but has a different front, could anyone tell me what it is? Smile

The front end looks to have been done by the same company that built the rest of the body - possibly in fibreglass?

Welcome to the forums looks an interesting appliance

It's on the front
Google - HCB Angus
I think you will find they used a number of base chassis.

They were based in Toton, Hampshire and they made fire engines for fire services around the world.
