Post by: eddy on January 04, 2009, 01:14:30 PM: hmmm interesting, how much have you done to the motor and what gearbox are you running, what size diff is in it? looks like its set up for towing, whats the legal weight allowed on the tow bar? ..... hmmmmm ...... not really interested in the interior just the running gear ... where are the gas tanks located? personally I reckon you need a fully sick custom camper van like the one in my gallery ::)

Post by: beddie ford clinic on January 04, 2009, 07:15:56 PM: WOW!!!
I can`t believe the amount of interest so quickly.This site is doing great!
Dooma,I know how hard it is finding a LWB V8 Windowless Bedford so I replyed to your ad.We searched for at least 6 months for ours and then we flew to Canberra -5 years ago.When we returned we spent thousands on the van so it would pass a full SA Government inspection.I was not seriously thinking of selling but maybe it should go to someone who is going to use it.We only really use it anually for our Chriistmas trips.I still love my Bedford very much but if someone offered me 4 grand I would probably take it.

Post by: beddie ford clinic on January 04, 2009, 07:51:09 PM: It runs a 283 Chev,a T350 transmission and we converted it to LPG. The gas tank is located underneath at the rear of the van.We also fully carpeted the interior.The rust issues are mainly confined to the bottoms of the doors.I`m sorry but I don`t know the diff size or what the towbar is rated at.
PM if interested.Thanks.

Post by: BlackBedford on January 07, 2009, 07:25:17 PM: G'day
They are still out there.
A bloke in a nearby town just bought a CFL truck locally in good condition for $1200. Included in the deal was a heap of spares and a CFL windowless van half restored. He has decided to restore the van as it is in pretty good order. When I spoke to the previous owner, he was NEVER going to sell them.
So keep looking.
