Ambulance 'Marks'
Posted: Mon Jun 23, 2008 12:15 am
A question for any ambulance aficionados.
Can anyone tell me if the new/curent model of Mercedes ambulances have a particular 'Mark' number (eg Mk III, Mk IV, Mk V, Mk VI)?
I distinctly remember the old Ford 'F' series ambulances having been given a 'Mark' by Paull & Warner. It was painted on the back of the body in the bottom left corner and said "Body by Paull & Warner Mark **" and had the 'Made in WA" logo.
If my memory serves me correct the last batch of Ford 'F' series were Mk IV (black grille and white wheel rims) and Mk IVa (chrome grille and chrome wheel rims).
When SJA moved to the Mercedes, did Paull & Warner continue to give a 'Mark' to each version of their fit-out? And if so, are we up to the 3rd version of Mercedes fit-out and what 'Mark' is it?
Finally, if the Mercedes' do have a 'Mark' version, is it written on the vehicle and where?
