The start of my bedford QL project!

By this I want to introduce me on hmvf.

Owner of several classic bikes and with the restoration of my triumph 3hw bike the start was made for one other military vehicle, and now i want to start with the rebuild of a bedford QL.

Some pictures of my 3hw.

Hi Niels

Nice job buddy, will she be finished for W&P 2012 ?

I have just got back from Scotland (850mile round trip) with a trailer load of QL parts for myself & Danny152.

I will be starting my restoration this weekend & hope to post a restoration thread aswell.

Great to see another QL has been saved just down the road from you Niels.

<Hello Ian it is not op the road from Niels butt it is very nice to see that outer people are in to bedford QL restoration.

I am from Belgium and it is still some way from Denmark!

If she was a QLR there should also be a PTO for the generator carried above the rear axle.

Yes the pto pick up is on the transfer box and also the regulator control box inside the cabin is still in place.

The chassis middle cross section was cut for the crane on the chassis and there will normally be the extra generator be mounted.

Hello Niels,

Shortly I will start with the restoration of my bedford QL. I have to start with the truck and a bare chassis.It started life as a QLR radio box and lost the box after it was sold by the army and was equipped with a crane for the lumbering trade (as so many 4x4 trucks after active service)[ATTACH=CONFIG]0[/ATTACH].

As you can see on the pictures I will need a rear body and think to make a QLD body for it because tracing a original cargo body will be very difficult.

But no panics I know somebody locally with a QLD that i can use as a sample to copy the rear section.
