spacecadet Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 (edited) Can you read the name on the grille? It's 4 letters and doesn't look like Ford.....Ebro seem to have used a badge. But you're right, it does look familiar with that window. Edited May 18, 2022 by spacecadet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also a SAVA S70 I can't see the difference between them Thanks very much for the help Spacecadet and GorillaDave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect it's just down to engine size- it's certainly not trim level from the looks of that cab interior! A great thread title.. Loving these archive pix BTW.

Allan Bell Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 I know the question has been answered but when I clicked on the image I immediately thought "Bedford". Yes I was wrong. Like Mark says I like these threads too. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't intend to add any of these vehicles to my caption or keywords but thought that you transport buffs might like a look. It is almost looks like a toy set with model cars and bus. I can do crops/zooms if requested. Also 1964 Spain. Edited May 18, 2022 by geogphotos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am finding this very interesting and rewarding ( not yet in much of a financial sense) - perhaps 'worthwhile' is a better word. I haven't done many of Spain but those have just gone live if you would like to have a look. There's quite a striking one of a woman in very 1960s dress walking through a saltworks - not sure who would ever want to use it or why but it is too good not to use. Another one I really like is the one with a donkey and cart collecting water from a village fountain in amphora that could be from the Roman period. And that was 1964!

She seems to be walking on air. I assume these are going on Alamy- they definitely should be there. My archival well outperforms my usual stuff. Shame there's no more 1979.
