1960's Mobile cinema, based on Bedford CF Coach
« on: October 30, 2018, 04:04:38 AM »
So, what is this? I need a reply to following questions:
- From what era?
- Make, type & sort of vehicle
- What purpose has it

Play fair and stay away from 'Google Search by Image' it is BANNED on AutoPuzzles!

I'm impressed, such a quick reply.....
It is indeed what you write, however, what type of Bedford? My info does state that it was a different type of vehicle before being modified to a mobile cinema.

I'm not surprised that this 1960s Bedford mobile cinema was solved so quickly, as the machine can regularly be seen at classic car events across the UK (your puzzle photo was taken at the Goodwood Revival, for example), and it has been the subject of a number of articles in magazines and website around the world  ;)

And we've had this puzzle before so if you remember it then the purpose of the vehicle was immediately apparent from the top part:
