Little did I know when I copied the photo from Pinterest...

A WW2 RAF crewbus built by Mulliners on a chassis brough over by US Army - converted to a racing car hauler by racing pilot Mr. Dennis Poore after the war.

Carried Mr. Poore's  Alfa 8C-35 to races in early 50's...

The Dodge truck has been a famous sight at the English racing venues in the 50's.

A proud vehicle and a fashinating story, indeed.

Thanks Ed, once again, for the links to the story of this great truck.
