B. WALKER and Son marked its seventh year in the body-building business by producing its first wide-bodied Sherpa conversion and displaying it at the Local Authority Plant and Vehicle Show recently held at Kempton Park race course in Surrey.
Complete with lightweight drop-side body, the vehicle offers seats for six men plus stowage space for tools and clothing.
An additional crew-cab version, the Messmate, will be offered which will have dining, washing and cooking facilities. A high-top roof section can also be added.
Other models include a tipper body or Walkerloy box body.
In the back of the show exhibit was a cheaper £399 plus vat version of the Truckman top for Ford's P100 pick-up.
