Hi Ben, yep phil and kathy, they were the 2 I thought of as well. I think most of the beddy's around are daily drivers, mainly because I dont think we have an official bedford club, or do we ? I offen check the list of clubs in my hotrod mags, and still have'nt seen one. I think any big van shows we have are on the coat tails of panelvan or hotrod shows.  Pitty, but I guess most beddy owners like myself, were around in the 60s - 70s when the craze was alive, and now we are married, kids, and in some cases grand kids, or for some divorced and sending all their money to the exs. Oh well thats life. Good to to see you up and well again ben.

Hi Penny, congrats on your buy. I was watching it on ebay myself & dreaming.
This is what could be done with it, if you haven't already seen it
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220555794430&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

saved yourself $60.000. Cheers Mark.
New member myself, no pic's etc yet coz I'm a bit computer dumb. but I'll get there.

As you are Bens little sister i have a small pearl of wisdom for you - Lock it up, keep Ben and his tool kit away or you'll wake up one morning with no doors, bonnet or wheels and what was once pink will be matt black!!!

But i suppose you would already know that!

Welcome aboard Penny & Miss Espresso - nice to have another one on the road!
