Anyone recognize this delivery van from a Munsters episode background?



I don't recognize it, and don't have any guess...

Dave commented, "Looks to me like and English Thames pronounced "Tems". What do you think?"

You might be spot on Dave, I think you have it... but Chris looked it up on IMCDB.org and nailed it!
Chris commented;
1955-56 Dodge US. Mail truck, rare today, Body was by Fageol
This Dodge postal vehicle built with right hand drive and a flat-head six cylinder engine with a push-button automatic transmission. A decal inside, above the windshield, says: FAGEOL - Pony Express Twin Coach - Kent, Ohio, while a tag proclaims “Post Office #6-A-1101 - Model #C3 - C6 - 95.” A Dodge tag notes - 105 net Hp @ 3600rpm.” The wheelbase of the truck is 95 inches, and the rear door opens like a minivan hatch.
The Twin Coach Company utilized their body manufacturing facilities to produce these "Pony Express" vehicles.

Commentary on Jalopnik has most people noticing it is Maltese, and for more oddball custom busses in the same "Almost" american 50's style: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/01/isolation-in-remote-islands-keeps-old.html and the license plate matches a Maltese, confirming the commenters who instantly recognized that it was related to the Maltese busses, https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRLS5MsubHg_d2a457YlyEIhaab22zZ_haBdlQboP898UinUnOuhbCLQchkKJ-7Tc5OwVG8ExJ-g6UbDhMb_ZtMEnxIllctoZVwbd0DSH-050uR1akm3iR-sAbAjg4d953ZRR5O2DdN2U/s1600-h/Maltese%2520buses.jpg

For a seperate look at the busses and small trucks that look odd to me, get Google task bar (love it) to translate for you and read
