Default Thames delivery van..

Hey guys, need some help finding out info on a possible new project.

Being working on a mates farm lately and went up to the back patches today to clean up for next season and found a whole heap of old cars sitting around, one that caught my eye was an old delivery van. So I asked one of my boss's and he said it was a Ford Thames.. Not much else except that it was similar to the prefect and had an old sidevalve engine.

The prefect was the equivalent to the Anglia 100E yes? So anyone know what this might be? Looked similar to the 307E vans but i'm guessing if it's still got a dated (at the time, wasn't it?) sidevalve engine it wouldn't be, however it had the roof vent on top and the front looked similar.

The only other thing is it had three letters on the bonnet, and from memory it was CWT.. So I was thinking 300E CWT.

So would it be possible i'm looking at a 307E van with a sidevalve engine put into it later on?

Anyway, any help would be appreciated. It's got a whole heap of rust but if I do a fabrication course next year i'm thinking of getting it off him to do as a rod/side project (was thinking more of a sled look with roof chop).

Cheers.
