Advanced pre-war transport for your laundry

• 

Whitechapel Washhouses, situated between Goulston Street and Old Castle Street in London, 13 January 1938. The establishment suffered extensive damage during the Second World War and was rebuilt after the war. Offering among other facilities, 1st and 2nd class Slipper Baths for men, but only 2nd class Slipper Baths for women. The Advance Laundries Ltd started at 40-42 Oxford Street around 1930. By 1938 the company had several outlets including Manor Park Laundry, where this (Chevrolet?) van travelled from.

Do you also think this is a Chevrolet? Or do you think it is something else? And what about the car all the way on the left (click on the photo to enlarge)? Please comment below.
