   I have one.
 Everytime l see a Bedford l always check out the rego sticker to see what yaer it was it is.
 On 2 different occasions , l have seen Bedfords with the rego sticker reading "''Holden Panel Van ""
 So if there was a way for the authorities to tell us how mny registerd Bedfords reside in Australia, It might not be correct.
 As some were reigestered as Holdens. How many  ???
 
               Cheers Frank

Adrian, please take heaps of photo's and post, this van you have got looks like a real good starting point as it has already had a lot done, but as you will find out, you will want to make changes ;)

add to those ones fat cf yoshi truck, the other lil truck at kewdale , plus the one that the glass guy had that we met john. big brads dads yellow camper the lwb camper in welleton ,the swb 4x4 that was in thornlie and the 4x4 champagne colored one
Id say in western Australia alone we know off at lest 110-120 bedfords now if only I can get a few more than 5 to show up on a run  :-[
