What an interesting Bedford. I wonder who built it, the four=door cab is most unusual, while the fire body at the rear almost seems as if it came from an earlier built truck. Any ideas? Or actual information?

I wonder why they positioned the 'growler' backward too? It almost has an Australian appearance about it,,

This looks like Reg EBM177 and it was first at Vauxhall Luton in their brigade as an escape carrier hence the design of the rear bodywork.
