A good deal of my research consists of trawling the net for photographic evidence. I am always suspicious of photographs of restored vehicles; as the restorers can, and often do, paint the vehicle in a scheme that takes their fancy. In the absence of anything else though, it is a start.*
Two such photographs are of a Bedford QLB decked out in desert colours for 51st Highland division, and a QLR signals van for 7th Armoured Division.
As ever, I would be grateful if anyone has more information or supporting evidence.
*No prizes though, for pointing out that the 40mm Bofors in the top picture is an American-crewed stand-in
