Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

AUTOMOTIVE historian B. H. Vanderveen, of Redhill, Surrey, rx has this to say of my June 23 picture of an old lorry, captioned as a Bristol: "It looks every inch a wartime Peerless! The Bristols used by the Government during World War I were 29 h.p. Y-type three-tonners. They were operated by the Admiralty and had wormdrive rear axles."

Thank you, Mr. Vanderveen. Admiralty, eh! Now I know the origin of that expression "Shipshape and Bristol fashion"...
