30/31 AA Service Car with the Weaver crane on the back.The English version was not "fleet sided" ,had a wider body and had tool/equipment lockers let into the side panels.Also had a large oval "Ford" sign on the roof,this was in blue and white glass and illuminated from inside.This is the coolest truck ever.Some years back an original complete one was found bricked up in a disused backery. The new property owners would not sell and parked it in the open at a leisure centre they owned.Sad to say it was trashed by the kiddies playing on it. The signed was thrown as it was a safety hazard (sigh).

John in bright and breezy morning England.
