Hi Bill -
There were two different "Princess" cars made at that time with RR
engines in them, both of them reworked by Vanden Plas. The Austin
Princess was really a limosine, and I find it hard to believe anyone
would convert this to a pickup. Maybe it's just an A40 Pickup? These
are quite common.
By the way, there is a very nice Austin Princess for sale in NZ right now:

@ Kiwi 27K it isn't very expensive, and looks to be in great shape.
Best Regards,
Alan
