Leyland Beaver

This is an unusual vehicle I photographed at the Trans Lancs Historic Vehicle Rally at Heaton Park, Manchester in September 1998.

It's not shown in the main body of the programme of the event, but is listed at the end of the list of participants as a late entry. It's simply described as a 1948 Leyland Beaver entered by Alan Wheelwright of Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire, but I've seen it elsewhere described as a 1950 model and a replica, constructed by Ken Wheelwright, of the original transporter which was owned by Land Rover.
