Had a thought, so please hear me out, as this is very rear indeed, please vote for the above. I know this is a Bedford site, but what about a post that every one can take a part in, and that is a post on Chevy and Dodge vans ( as they are close to the Bedford shape) not just any van but ones that have some custom work done on them that is different , as this can be transferred to a Bedford if someone likes it. Any way just a thought...........

A sample...

I dont have a problem with that Bas, it was a 75 chev van shape that first turned me onto custom vans, then i saw my first beddy and the rest is history, i have a beddy shaped coffin already picked out. lol
And yep i recon 60% of my vans ideas came out of the chevy vans i have seen. I'm in bas.

Now this is a nice consealed front, would graft onto a Bedford real Well.



Yes this has been done to a Bedford, maybe its time to do it again. (David)



Taillights in the Bumber, I guess this has been done on the Bedford using The Holden Bumper.



Double split rear doors, nice rebated taillights

Lots of great ideas there, who wants to sponsor me to build all these so I can give up work and just build Bedfords all day every day
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"

Sounds like a good idea, if you give me the finished vans  ;)
