    Reminds me of the Willys-Overland vans before WW II. My father kept a whole fleet of them running through the war. This probably isn't that old.

    Made me put on my thinking cap, but 2 minutes with Google and I nailed it. Austin 101. This is an 'early' version judging by the more V'd windshield. The later ones were more flat:

    Not a Citroen, they have corrugated sides. International made a little van similar to that, but that's not it.

    Ha! Found it. It's a Morris J type van.

    D'oh. Too slow!

    HA, sucker! As with anything, there are people who collect and restore them. More reading for the truly bored: J Type vans

    I like the J type.. neat little van. Wasn't somebody looking for a unique vehicle for bread delivery?

    That's a Divco.

    I was just offered one for WAAY under Challenge budget. Trying to decide if I am going to pull the trigger on it.

    I'm not sure my wife loves me that much.
