That is one hell of a body on that I don’t think I could walk up that plank it looks to thin it would take some getting used to if I was there after using a tailgate for so long 
what cube size is that
John , I would say 2200ft .
Passed my driving test(1952) when apprenticed to a House Furnisher in a 1930s Bedford identical to this, and over the next 4 years did quite a lot of “flittings” the van was long past it use by date, but hey some great adventures, one memorable trip returning north from the Borders and getting stuck in a snowdrift, spent the night the back wrapped up in packing sheets, even remember the detail they were grey with red thread hemming in the morning the rad was froze, always make do and mend, no moaning groaning just got on with it, always make the other guy go backwards unless going upstairs it was heavier but less awkward.
The boss’s son bought a farm so one of my slightly unusual jobs was carting loose straw, my apprenticeship was always a poor second to driving that old van, I loved it
Oily
