Paul, I thought it was a Buffalo because of its size and the air cleaner intake on top of the left front fender. But the articles I read always said it was a Hippo. Thanks for setting me straight.

As you watch the movie you will notice it has 4 trucks in it all been used it has a Super Hippo a COE  something AEC or maybe Foden or maybe a Hippo and also something a little smaller than a super Hippo because its single drive ???

A great old film of simpler times

Buffalo has three vents on the bonnet (hood) Hippo has two vents
