The only good bits would be the V6 as it would be saleable to a Capri restorer and the rims for anybody with a CFL.

A tip:
CFL rims do not have a safety lip to keep the tyre on the rim when flat. The risk is going into a corner and having the tyre roll off the rim and the van sliding off the road and probably rolling over. It has happened several times that I know of.
Transit rims fit the CFL and have the safety lip.
I highly recommend fitting Transit rims to the front of your CFL.

It can happen at low speed!

The Bedford is great, but it is not perfect. This is another example.
Ford makes some great stuff. The Transit has a lot of good points, style not being one of them.
