Well what a day, took a trip in the Bedie down to the local petrol station to full her up, when finished pulled over to the side as I forgot to buy something while there, came back out and the key wouldn't turn on, steering on lock (sh ...t) got  the tools out took the lock off, found some wire in the van and proceeded to hot wire it, guess what a cop came walking by and wanted to know what I was doing :D I told him, but he still got on his dispatch unit and checked out the ownership and my ID, all was ok but before he left he said please don't take this up as a part time job.......... ;D (may be a good idea for some extra cash) ;D anyway for got about the elec fuel pump so took a while to work it out, but all good now have set up a switch under the dash that starts the pump and then a push buttom to kick it over, works great untill I get another unit...........

I found this interesting article that referenced a 55HP Bedford Campervan doing a lap around
a German Test track while Chefs cooked a meal.. :P

I got to work on my custom van on saturday and sunday, wahoo
It felt good working on it again, well until my angle grinder blew up and gave me a bolt
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"
