Afternoon all,

Can anyone help me id this lorry? The AV reg. (Aberdeenshire) ran from 9/26 - 1/38, so AV8438 points to it being put on the road in 1937 or thereabouts.

I think it's a Morris Commercial, about a 2 tonner?

It wouldn't help much Rick, mine has very few forward control pictures, but it is very similar to the pre war 5 ton J, or 2 ton C, type forward control models.

Its a mid 30's Morris Commercial Semi-forward control 'C' type by the looks of it.
