rookie Bedford owner
« on: September 18, 2010, 12:49:09 PM »
Hi there. Thought I would introduce myself. We are new to Bedfords, Came to NZ 2 years ago and decided to buy a project to turn into a camper. Chose the 280 ambulance for it's size and the fact that it had a Holden motor and PBR disk brake conversion. Currently have the front suspension apart but inside and body done. Also has electrical and self containment certs now. Looking forward to using it this summer.  :)

Hi there Rich. Welcome to BeddieLand. :)
You will soon become an expert on repairing these things, but know that you are one of the few with enough passion, guts, and sense of adventure to drive a Beddie.
Funny old life.

Hi there. Thanks for that, I am already familiar with virtually all of the grubby bits of the van so hoping to experience the adventure side soon.

Nahh, That was "rite of passage" The adventure is to see if you get home from wherever you have been! ;D
