Hello John, a Reynolds Boughton RB44 with Carmichael
bodywork.
Originally at Birmingham airport, coloured yellow.

These were a 4X4 conversion of the mid weight Ford A series chassis, which used an extended version of the Transit cab.

They had a reputation for being very unstable because of their high center of gravity, and were only a bit less rare than the Leyland Firemaster parked next to this example.

This is parked in my lockup now not looking as nice as it did there
