Brilliant lorries, I was a house delivery coal man for 18 years and the majority of coal lorries were always bedfords, perfect height for loading and carrying off ,and they could work the 3 and a half tonners loaded with 6 ton could still get you up hill, but we had to look out for the WEIGHTS AND MEASURE men Haha.
Drove one in '77 for about 8-9 months. Great truck that could stop on a sixpence.
Good trucks in the day. Whatever happened to Bedford!
Daf kill em.... so bad
It wash my first truck in 1973 i drove in nederland holland europa for 1 year and move on to a different truck companie now i am in pensioen i work for 48 years on the roads in europa no accidents
They stayed stuck in the past .
The truck of my grand father in 1980, the best years of my life
I was a coalman for 18 years back in the day when every house in the country had coal fires and it was always the trusty Bedford lorries, perfect height for loading and carrying off ,just an all round reliant lorry, capable of doing any job ,ie the 3 and a half tonner loaded with 6 ton of coal Haha, they were the days.
My 1961 J6 still goes but is currently under restoration. Even had to change it from positive earth.
I drove this in a kipper version between ages 12 and 16 on our camping. It was pretty fast with the six cilinder petrol engine.
Looks like an Euclid dump truck in the background- I had the Dinky Toy when I was a kid. I think you wound a handle and that raised the tipper body!
Just love Bedford vehicles
Used to love driving MKs in the forces, not so much if you got contact right, because you could always guarantee your combats getting caught and ripped on that sodding handbrake when bugging out of the cab.
Bringing back great memories used to work on them as a mechanic here in the south of Ireland
It's nice to see the period colours on these trucks .
que caño el bedford......el que teniamos en argentina se hubiese llevado por delante el sampi...no habia forma de hacerlo frenar..un fierro muy noble
much prefered the S type, it looked the part, and the 4x4 RL
1:52 For a moment I thought he was going to check for water leaks, Just like I used too when I was bursting......
Best Bedford ever made only one was no tilting cab
It reminds me of my old 8 tonner VJL 922 ok she wasn’t fast with the old 4 speed box but I thought the world of her ,
VJL 922 Registered in the Holland area of Lincolnshire, plate now worth about £2500, if you can find it! Wouldn't mind finding RDH 32R my old TK reg. Ex Dudley council 7.5 ton with a box van, had many trips from Pinchbeck to the wholesale markets with her.
Perfect shot of checking the oil , now try taking the freaking head off , 330 were not that bad but the 466/500 were a bastard ! Everyone that worked on Bedfords had a bad back , they finished many mechanics working life !
Give me a ford D series , they were crap but at least you could get at them .
Silly old duffer at the end. Who checks their oil immediately after turning the engine off?
An old duffer.
I had Tk 1260 for 15 years I use to load 11 ton of coal on her an aul work horse it's a pity there was no power steering
Kac motor beygir kac vides
Drove the TK and TL ,great lorries the Bedfords!
I love the bit where he pulls the dipstick up, wipes it clean and then looks at it.
The Bedford TK was a great lorry
But with NO sound
+Terry Ive - thanks for pointing this out Terry, I've corrected the title - Jenny @ Movietone
Very nice rocket
Thank you British movietone, lovely footage, we used to have a TK tipper double drop side, we used to tow a phoenix tar sprayer with it as well, it was only a 4 pot, but lorry 🚛 just used to keep going, change them filters regularly and she'll look after my dad used to say, and grease is cheaper than bearings, those were the days 👍
We have a lot of these trucks up here in Bangladesh and they are very strong not gonna lie. Great Video
I worked for a company who exported literally hundreds of second hand tk's and to Bangladesh and many Asian countries.
