Tim:

Do you happen to know approximately when this Bedford was in service with SIFS?

Perhaps you might also know who built the bodywork with its rather unusual four door cab?

Hi my grandfather owned 593 until 1992 he brought it down from suffolk in 1976 when he took up the position of fire safety officer for the hospitals in aylesbury buck also he was a sub officer in Suffolk and Ipswich based at framlingham
