Tim, I'd need to ask my brother how the VW kombi and Commer compare as he had both. I think they would be very similar. I think the fact that a number of...

Tim, I would concur with all Steve has to say but the extra 125cc of the bigger motor didn't really make that much difference. Steve has given a delightful...

Hey Tim, If you are serious about getting that Commer and would like to drive one first, I am about 2 hrs. NE of San Jose and have a real, live & driving '66...
Daren, thanks for the photos. Both these vans look to have similar bodies. Were they built by the same firm/for the same company. Were they ice-cream vans or...
-Daren- Thanks for the offer- don't know as I'll take you up on it, though. I'm not terribly concerned about how much power it may or may not have- my criteria...

I saw this Commer tipper on sale in museum. Owner is asking 800euros. It is unknown modelto me, year is guessed to be 1960 supposedly it is diesel. Check the...
Paivio, it is an LB model Superpoise - probably a 5 or 6 tonner. The Superpoise was the light truck range of Commers from 1/2t to 6 ton. It will either have a...
Hi Howard, et al, the camper/caravan bodies were built by Bluebird, who are known for building school bus bodies (at least here in the US). The '66 still has...
Daren, As requested, here are the shots again of the 62-64 I found off one of our main tourist routes last Sept. Didn't seem to be a house or anyone around. ...
Bruce, Did you get your hubcaps. I am looking at getting some done here in NZ. A guy is doing a special run at a great price for us (about half price). Are you...
Am not familiar with this model Commer ~ if thes hubcaps arethe same as on the PA PB I have a pair in so-so condition that I'd be interested in selling. Daren...

hello, we've been on the group a couple of months but haven't had any messages so we hope this is still active! We own a 1978 Commer PB and are in desperate...

Hi I have a 1950 Commer Express delivery, which I believe to be basically the same as the car. I need to replace the flex brake lines. Also need a complete...
Hello Ian, Hub (brake drum) may be available item but almost always studs are replaceable on these old cars and were originally sold as a spare. I myself...
Thanks Paivio I am concerned about the stud thread size, and the nuts are no good either. I suppose I couls use any thread size and suitable nuts but was...
Greetings from Victoria BC Canada I have just joined the group, having recently bought a 1950 Commer Express Delivery. Would like to contact anyone else with...
Ian, could you give a few more details as to what model you have? I presume this is based on the side valve Hillman Minx car? I'm sure we could find you the...
PS I shall try to find part numbers, but I'm sure the hub is the same as the car, as would be the wheel studs. replacement wheel studs would be best. I also...
