Title: hello
Post by: Solix on April 05, 2010, 03:15:41 PM
Hello everybody,

So we are a couple of french travelling around australia in our bedford from 1976, and we have heard about this internet site for bedford's owner so why not joining it?
We have start our travel from melbourne and it's so good to drive this van because everywhere people look at us and come to talk about our van and we are proud of owning it.
It's a very good van but we have a little problem, unfortunately I have lost the pertol tank cap on a service station and it's impossible to find something to replace it because every other cap ae too small, so we are visiting all the wreckers on our road to find one but without any success for the moment, so if someone got an idea it would be really nice to indicate me what to do.
Thx
