Is it an ex-military vehicle? If so, make sure that you get very good photos and contact the registrar.

That it looks like the 1936 Birmingham Coat of Arms

It certainly does indeed look like the Birmingham coat of arms. It was put on any vehicle that was the responsibility of the Council - even the refuse lorries carried it!

Very interesting... obviously professionally done. Perhaps you could reproduce it again on the paintwork?

It does indeed look like the Brum coat of arms:

Some interesting heraldry there.
I would have thought though that Birmingham council would have favoured Austins.
