it has a 186 motor with a 173 head its fitted with a 350 holley carb and extracters. its fitted with cdi dizzie (no points) the trans if fitted with a trans cooler because i towed a big trailer the trans and diff are standard, kms are a bit unknowen as the dash has been changed, it has had new brakes fitted about 2 years ago when the engine was ovahaulded.new radator fitted last year with thermo fan  i used it as a work van for many years and never let me down mech is very good and strong but its not a show van inside or out. its been ruffly painted before i got it and i have only ever tuched up the pain work with spray cans.  it has a standard bedford diff so top seed is about 90 kms will do 100 but revs a bit hard I keeped the diff standard because of the wieght i used to carry and towing.  i am not in any hurry to sell it as i love the old girl just that now iam retired i just dont need it

Oops missed a word, that should have been "Is that a custom dash you have around the Beddy one?"
