Re: Anyone know what this is?

Is it a Thames, or Austin, maybe a...? The grille is similar to an Austin.

Re: Anyone know what this is?

Re: Anyone know what this is?

I can't help myself, I love all these "what is it?" threads. I almost never know the answer, but I can't help clicking on them!

Looking at the firewall, it doesn't look like it had a right-hand steering column.

Re: Anyone know what this is?

My guess is also a Thames but not sure what year. Here's a pic and the grill looks the same and the wiper location and window shape, etc. look the same.

Re: Anyone know what this is?

Here is says it's a 49 Fordson E38W wagon. I guess I do recall the Fordson Thames name from way back when.

Re: Anyone know what this is?

Funny thing, he's got 2 of them. The other one is on a frame. The other one has a steel roof riveted on though.
