Post-War Other Tr-10

Saw links to TR-10 Estate Wagon. I remember seeing a similar model that was like a panel truck in a junk yard on Mykawa Road in Houston Texas. Actually a fleet of them. Looked like they had a TR-3 type motor, but not twin SU's. I remember that had been delivery vehicles for a drugstore or liquor chain.
 
I wonder if that fleet of "panel trucks" you saw might have been Standard Vanguards? Not too likely, as they weren't sold much in North America, except perhaps in Canada. Those would have had the same basic wet-sleeve engine as the TR3. Whatever they were, it sounds as if they might have been a special order? Again, British commercial vehicles of that type are extremely rare in the US, although a bit more common in Canada.
