i understand your reasons for turfing the barn doors, personally i can't bear to part with them as thats alot of the look i like of the bedford .... maybe that will change once i start trekking with it hehehe!

I'm with you Sammy, I love my old school back doors. I've been lucky with this van and never had an issue with them opening on their own. I have experienced it with my previous van though.

I had a LWB with a pretty hot 400 chev in it.......the van was a bare inside and rear barn doors.....however, after taking it out for it's first real flogging after doing the conversion from a 202 to a 400......i returned to find the rear doors no longer sitting level......the 400 had so much torque it caused the body frame to move so much that it created a missalingment of about an inch!!!!!!! so it was out with the welder and i boxed in the bottom section and made the top half a lift up hatch.
