bedford bits and I am more than pleased to see Buga is still around No I don't own a
bedford of any sort now But that is a mistake as they were an enomouse part of my
life and I miss the crazys that owned them I stiil look every time I see one and
wish that my Huey was still with me as I had lots of fun with that 350 chev powered
Cfl and should have looked after my old friend better So hi to you all Happy New

Seems once your bitten by the beddy bug the fever never leaves you - the symptoms my die down but never fully go away.

Talking about once bitten, Yesterday I went and had a look at a Beddy, 1/2 hour from here. Anyway, I got there and behind the house threw the trees , I saw rust and cars. the heart started pumping. After I knocked on the door, got saveged by the old cootes dogs, he said the bedford is his lucky charm and its NOT for sale. So I talked him into letting me look at his good luck charm and the rest of his glory box, cos l'm here now and l've already interupted you counting flies ::). We head down and as we past the first tree and got a look, Iwanted to turn back and get away from this crap, they had been picked clean, but the bastards left the shot up and rusted out carkass of the cars. I was tring to get away but the old coote had a new freind (me). Never disturb some one when there doing nothing, 32 cars, scratch that, 32 piles that would be refused entry to a srap yard cos the magnet would not be able to pick them up and 2 hours of his presious time when he chain smoked my smokes (lucky I had enother packet in the glove box, other wise he would have ran out) He gave me an indepth life story of every pile of crap there. I pray I end up like that, so remember we out scabbing for cars or bits take extra smokes ;D :o ::)

Oh yeah, there's a 74 series Red Rattler with the number 7474, but it doesn't go anymore, we ran out of track.
