• Toyota (GB) Ltd has announced the introduction of three new bodies on the HIACE chassis cab.
Two of the bodies, the Gownmaster and Stylemaster vans, are manufactured by Perkins Commercial Services of London. The third variation, a timber dropside builder's truck, is manufactured by B. Walker & Son Ltd, of Watford.
The PCS /Toyota Stylemaster is available in two types, one particularly suited for use as a mobile shop, library or site-office. This type is fitted with a 4ft by 3ft flap to the nearside which can be secured in the open position.
Another type has the same shape and construction but is unlined and fitted with tying slats. The 5ft galvanized mild-steel roller shutter is fitted.
The Walker body is available as a dropsider or flat platform vehicle.
Standard equipment includes detachable rear corner pillars and art angled iron bolster incorporating the front corner pillars. Dropsides and tailboard are hung on reinforced channel-hinged irons and cushioning rubbers are provided. Optional features include steel floor overlay, rope hooks and floor wearing irons. The Gownmaster body is finished to match standard Toyota paintwork with a black roof and centre side-flash edged with polished moulding. Stylemaster-bodied vans are delivered painted in Toyota standard colours; while the dropside builder's truck is supplied with the interior and exterior of the body finished in primer.
