Does anyone recognise this vehicle? Its a Bedford is all I know and its the local fruiterer's transport. I have a feeling its older than me and running better as well.

When I was a kid we had a Bedford Rascal. Is that not the Vauxhall logo?

ETA - no, it's a Bedford logo - but it's almost identical to old Vauxhall ones!

I like the roundness of all the panel work and lights. It's like a blow up truck. It suits the fruit and vege truck perfectly.

Sorry Tom, it's not a old truck I recognise. Vauxhall have always as far back as I can remember, had that lovely Griffin logo.
You have to admire the lovely shapes and design of the old trucks compared to the modern counter part.

I might be wrong but Bedford was owned by General Motors along with Vauxhall and opel Holden etc, I'm sure but that maybe the Holden Griffin as they are similar
