My Bedford cf350
« on: May 03, 2009, 06:00:24 PM »
Hi everyone my name is Rozz, I bought my Bedford cf350 "Lucy" from a local for $100 she was an icecream truck but now without a generator she is just a 6 wheeled , pink van with a window in the side, shes in need of a lot of hard work but whenever I have days off she gets all the attention, ive been looking for some new back doors for her because the ones she has now are on the boarder line of unrepairable, and there is so much rust ive found but ive ben treating it and shes lookin hmmmmmm well still messy but its a workin progress. The photo of her is a little old but I hope you all like her shes my Big rusty baby.
