    I'm really enjoying the whole process of tidying up this beautiful truck! It's a true marvel of engineering with how these where built back in the day. Nice an simple an not overly complicated.
    Beautiful work with the filming to james! It's a real joy to watch ❤

    Great trucks Bedfords! As a native of Northern Ireland, I'm impressed that New Zealanders use the term "wee", as much as we do here! Cheers!

    That is a nice old truck. It is a good day when you can work on something that you don't need in the morning. I am looking forward to the series.

    Hi James, new subscriber, enjoy watching your videos, love these old TK Beddys, had a lot of fun in one when I had a fencing contract, great truck, very reliable. My old man was a great believer in Fisholene in door panels etc so maybe when you get those doors sorted it’s an idea. Great content, thanx for sharing

      Hi Gordon thanks for the support and the suggestion. She’s a cool old beast looking foward to seeing it usable again. Yeah the doors aren’t too flash but the plan fix them up.
