I was actually sweating in a t shirt at Buller this weekend.  Glad to say all my soreness has gone away now too.  I still find it funny that falling doesn't hurt it's the repeated getting up

Well Well Well I see that bedford owners have sewing circles as well or this the mothers club ? .

This Van body wise is fantastic compared to my old van, the rust is minimal and can be fixed very simply. The mechanicals in this van are very good, the engine is strong and the transmission shifts well and the diff isn't whiny. I think it may have a wheel cylinder out in the rear but that's about all. Of course it is a old van so there may be a few little bits and pieces required for RWC . Overall this van is in good condition and worth the money I'm asking, i think that i purchased it very well and the previous owner sold it too cheap but that's my good fortune.


ok, my two cents worth. ;)
Good front end, needs a tie rod, adjust the wheel bearings, little bits, but nice and tight.
Doors open and close nicely
Two core radiator needs a cleanout
Sounds Excellent with the lake pipes ;D.
Seats not roadworthy,
I think you'd have to replace the windscreen.
Heater fan didn't go for me.
Oil leaks

BUT
If that's a fantasic body I'm Mr Universe.

There is lots of rust, and i won't be bidding. Alot is a relative term - i reckon it's a lot, some would say a bit, but i'd get the big tub of fish oil!
There's about 50 pinholes around the roof just above the gutters,that you could turn into big holes with a screwdriver, a hole in the roof, drivers wheel arch will be tricky (inside that map holder by the drivers foot), bonnet, bottom of doors,alot of seams
Y'know LOTS of fixable rust
At two grand Shannon got a bargain,but......
i've seen the wonders that some of you guys can do with a welder - it is definitely fixable, but be warned,
