  • In this episode I give you a tour of the INSIDE and show you what needs doing and start to prep the engine for a service and paint.
    I have always wanted a Bedford CF van and I can't believe this one was living just around the corner from where I live, stuck in a barn.

    Oh man, that Street Machine magazine takes me back to reading Hot Rod and Street & Custom magazines contemporaneously here in the States (I was in school the same time as you were, went to Uni in 1989.) Great work, Kev!!

    The head probably needs new seats for running unleaded. Worth stripping down. Enjoyed the Street Machine mag.

    The Bedford's in that mag are french and that angled window design is a french thing actually.
    Additional tidbit, the "Leonard" is still out there, in good condition and I think I saw it for sale not to long ago!

    All that interior has got to go on the bonfire Kev. Every last bit!

    Kev, With that interior it must have been a shagging wagon what was the old saying, If this vans rocking don‘t come knocking lol.
    I had an old 60s cannery yellow Thames van that was hand painted in the 70s great memories lol. Cheers Dave

    Top tip: Plus Gas is a much more effective penetrating oil than WD40.

    You do not want the stock seats, 💀 uncomfortable back killers!
    The overdrive is gold 💰 worth more than the whole van 🤫

      @TheGentlemensMotorRacingTeam  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      yea I am probably looking at those original seats with rose tinted glasses :) - oh wow, I best look after the overdrive then :) - maybe I won't use the gearbox for drag racing

    Great video. I think the GMC Vandura is the US cousin to the Bedford CF. I wonder if they used the same engine? I cannot help but think of a GMC Vandura everytime I see a Bedford CF.
