RMS Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 have managed to spare some time for the Bedford and completed 90% of the wiring loom, fitted out most of the cab and floor pans and made and fitted most of the replacement cab skirt panels.

RMS Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I am in Sr Lanka for a couple of weeks and the first place i called into today i spotted this in the car park:wow:, complete with Bedford Scammel badge! Turns out it was this companies first truck and by the looks of it they got their monies worth out of it, now it take pride of place outside the offices.

RMS Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Its May!!! have managed to do some work on the truck, not as much as i would have liked to though, work gets in the way al the time! SO i cracked on with the wings and bonnet and completed all the wiring of the rear lights and trailer socket. i have wired it the same way as i found it i.e 1960's style lights etc, i managed to find some Lucas bakelite switchovers for the convoy light and FV style number plate/ convoy light. The rear light mounts are possible from a 432? they have a FV part number on them we found after blasting the parts. I found a pair of front indicators that are the same as the remains of what were fitted to the bedford, bloomin ugly looking that they are! Repaired both front wings and made the new bonnet today. hopefully will be picking up some bonnet sides very soon from Devon. Off to DVLA on Monday to register it :-) hopefully!

guy66 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Barry, this is really a super combination, maybe when my QL is ready I will have a look at a OY water browser truck that need a restoration. But first I need to complete my QL. Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul_bish Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 looks lovely. Are you going to put some sort of load on the trailer? I always think that sets things of nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMS Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Registered, taxed and ready for W&P :-). Will have doors fitted by Wednesday, hopefully! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony B Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Beautiful work. You may not really need the doors though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMS Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I think your right tony, it's going to be an oven in there! Unfortunately it's the mirrors that are attached to the door that I need most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
