wrecking whole bedford 351 v8 disc brakes adelaide
« on: June 22, 2011, 07:13:56 PM »
I bought this bedford a few months ago with the intend of restoring and modifying into a fully pimped out show car but with the bedford front panels damaged and extremely hard to get seems they are spot welded and 30 years old the wreckers who do have them cant be bothered selling me them and fibreglass panels would need engineering on top of the fact that the 351 would too, i'm basically looking at about 9000 just to get it on the road so i can drive it only a few times a year so i have decided to scrap the plan, if i dont get a great price for the running gear i'll drop it into a escort and register it as a 4banger.
The bedford has plenty more to offer but , custom tail gate, rust repair panels disc brake front ford rear end to match seats dash etc no reasonable offer refused this van will be scrapped within 2 weeks so get in fast , if ya got no cash hold it or i'm even up for swaps on anything else of value
ring or text but just got a new i phone, im deaf as a doornail and cant normally hear it.. 0400455642

Sorry to hear the news. I too bought a van that was a waste of time and money. Good thing is I.was able to use some of the parts on it  for my 2nd van, so it wasn't a complete waste. If your still planning on finding another beddy to do up, perhaps consider keeping it for parts. Like you said, beddy parts are hard to find

How can i say this without hurting your feelings...Oh, I know, I don't want your stupid things in my cool van
