  There used to be a big Commer van that looked a bit like this in a scrapyard at Bowesfield in Stockton on Tees during the early 80's. You couldn't get near it for a picture owing to the two ferocious werewolves that guarded the yard. All gone now though.

  That one will I suggest have been the former Rowntrees one. You should have taken a can of PAL with you.

  Could well be by an ambulance design as Birmingham was a combined Fire /Ambulance Service prior to 1974.
