Well here is a challenge with the power of the internet some one will know this old truck, it helps that the number plate is readable and also a shot of a trailer it once pulled. So it’s over to you old boy’s to fill in the blank’s, cheers Buzzer.
PS. Was sent these shots by Barclay Holland’s, thanks for that.

He,s one to get the brain cells working, what year would this van be registered, regards servo

I’d guess around 1951/2. The Bedford CA came out in '51, and that is an early one. It’s a South Shields registration.

Hi Servo. A little research into registration records show that South Shields Corporation Transport put a Guy Arab Mk IV with Roe double deck bodywork into service in June 1955. Fleet number 159 was registered CU 7555, I gues the Bedford CA would have been registered in early 1955 at this rate.
Cheers, Leyland 600.
