1989 Duxford rally. Bodybuilder unknown. Unusual to see red painted locker in that position. Says Stalham on side.

Looks like a Whitson body to me

Checking the reference books (fire engines of Eastern England) I think it is a Jennings.

The red painted locker and cab are not original. This extra paint "arrived" after it left the brigade. Jennings bodywork

Thank you for this Norfolk posting Petros, this was indeed at Stalham and in service, only the front would have been red. It was on ebay a few years ago in a poor state, not known if it is still with us.

Its possible that the locker came off another machine that was sprayed red to replace the original one that might have become faulty. Somerset used to strip the lockers off some of their machines before they went for disposal to be used a replacements/spares.

The commer was in a very bad state when i looked at it 4 years ago in a pub car park near tamworth staffs. The back had been hit by a JCB. I would like to know its fate. I own the sister engine 2998 vf.
