Online search for Reg Nos?
Anyone know any good websites where I can look up Reg Nos. to find the make of vehicle? DVLA only works on current vehicles, and I have a lot of photos of older vehicles which I am trying to identify, (Car, van, bus, lorry)

Think it works if you try and check the MOT history but cars that have been formally scrapped will not appear. Some of mine from the 70's and 80s do come up although sometimes the reg is now on an Audi !!

Bit before my time Willy - only thing I can think of is an early Aries, but can't see the Sunderland police buying a French car.
I reckon you have proved my point though, and there is someone on the forum who knows what this vehicle is. |

I posted the pic up out of genuine interest Mike in hope that someone might be able to provide some info about any aspect of it. I know nothing about it really and I found it while surfing for some local info for a slideshow that I'm putting together for family members following a bereavement before Christmas. I was thinking that it might be one of Ford's model T truck variants but I'm guessing and it might not be. It popped up while I was looking for info about a now long-gone local hospital and before I knew it I'd spent quite some time reading about the history of our local constabulary and Ford's first UK operation in Manchester at Trafford Park. I will have to google when time permits to see if Austin had anything similar at the time as I gather that it might have been one of Ford's main competitors in that era which I would guess is early 1900s.
