Time is a swear word in Beddy language.

Yeh I certainly got lucky finding this van as the previous owner took great care and had it in shed or under carport nearly all it's life. Doing the bare metal respray gauranteed body condition and she will always remain stored in shed while I have her. The rest of the van is also still very tight with only 87000 on the clock and full log book supplied since new.

Stuey and I took a drive through to Hamilton today to see Ray's mint standard van and the progress on his CF2 custom van. Picked up a few needed bits at the same time. Spent almost 4 hours talking Bedfords. Couldn't resist taking a shot of the two vans together just before we headed home. What a great day.

You guys should of popped in, I'm not that far from Ray
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"

No probs, was just in the area...

Was able to do more on the rebate, will paint it today and then start laying up, will be nice to see the windows in and van more complete again, window is a close fit, so let's hope I have it right.. ???

Hey Busy, didn't realise you were that close. I could have brought you the steering rack. Next time.

Looking good Bas. With a bit of luck you might have the van ready for Brits at the Beach in October ;)

 :) was given a forklift for sandblasting and working on a mates
Tow truck.
He bought it for $1200 not going, covered in leaves and lookin pretty sad,
The hydrolic pump was off and in bits, nothing was working electrically,
Tyres were half flat, no battery, things hanging off everywhere, bolts missing.
Was a nightmare.
Im stoked
It needs a tidy up and a bit of TLC
But should be the ants pants soon,  :)
