I’d say Neville as well, going by the method of construction. Neville used a clever modular system whereby extruded alloy sections about 15 inches wide could be bolted/rivetted together to make up the required length of body. This one looks to have been built the same way, but the tapered profile is certainly unusual.Clever or not, I’m not keen on the look.
Neville bodies were useless on quarry work , when they got worn they bent between each join , so if you were tipping damp or sticky materials you ended up with stuff stuck all down the body .
I never used one Dave but the coal n gravel boys liked them. Cheers Coomsey
