Neither. I have to say I'm surprised the donor chassis has been so difficult to identify.

In that case I assume it's a fairly major make.
How about Commer?

Must be Fordson then.
It seems to be a version of their 2 ton truck, which I think they called AA (or TT?!)

Here's a picture of the prototype, but I don't think they made many versions of it:

Ford/Fordson 2-ton chassis is correct. It was tractor-based, unlike the AA/TT chassis. Your image shows the LHD prototype built in the US (purportedly the one-and-only US-built Fordson).

Coachbuilder?

Not much idea about coachbuilder.
I've Googled endlessly for your puzzle picture but nothing comes up.
There's very little about old dustcarts and their makers on the 'Net so I can't really find anything.
Eagle Engineering perhaps?
