That one is interesting. I can't find any Thornycroft with that body style. I think it must be a completely local-built cab. Maybe from the driver's clothes, Holland?

It looks a lot nicer than any of the English cabs until they started on the fire-trucks in the 50's, but they too may have been designed and built by an outside contractor.

Right, the flags (Dannebrog) in the front of the trailer are typical for danish trucks, they still have it today on many of them.
