Commer 15cwt Police Van

This is an update of an earlier model of the same vehicle with the same number. The colour is darker, the lettering on the side is cast rather than the decals on the earlier model and the electrics differ. This one has an on-off switch, the older one had a combination of a switch and a cam- based flasher unit on the front axle.

Both are the good old Commer PB and based on the back-body swapping 'Constructor' set - only on this one the back comes off to change the battery or the bulb. I suppose you could put a milk-float back on this or a van, pickup or ambulance - but it would look a bit odd.

Its a bit of a scruffy example and the electrics have all disappeared - but it was very cheap.....
