Hi Neil
These ambulances were known as K2s we used them in Casualty evacuations collecting from various airport locations and transporting  the patients to various military hospitals in UK
The ambulance in the film was called Katie or Katy not sure  which now but the K2 resemblance  speaks for itself.
You brought back many memories of these super vehicles no cab doors just a  half height canvas flap with fixings.
Between the seats was a flap in the floor with a tap to swap over fuel tanks when  required.
