Lovely restored Karrier. It looks like it has a Carmichael body? if so I wonder what the chassis number is? I am at present compiling a list of all Carmichael bodies built for the UK market, together with chassis no. and which Fire Brigade or Company operated them.

GJM447
Powered by a Rootes 4752 cc, 6 cyl. inclined at 66 degrees (sloper) petrol engine rated at 109 bhp.
