It can't be a '55, it has the earlier Grille. I'd say built in '53, registered early '54
I think ( and might well be wrong) that they started the LCv with 501 as well. so only 1535 LCvs later!

Yes, the first LCV was 501 built on May 5th 1953. By January 1954 the chassis numbers had reached 5215 so your van is obviously a 1953 model.

You need to contact the LCV register as they have more info available.
