Two FANY's and ambulance
Permalink   

Couple of shots of a photo on display at the Royal Armouries, Leeds. Interesting ambulance, a type I haven't seen before - anyone know what the manufacturer is? It's certainly not one of the usual ones seen such as Ford, Crossley, Daimler or Austin. Interestingly, looks like it says 'FANY 1' on the bonnet. Body looks like one of the crudest ones i've seen, no doubt an existing car converted

No Ford, Crossley, Daimler or Austin - 100% not!
I think it is a Sunbeam, Napier or Studebaker.
