    Default Vintage Van

    I saw this van parked up with many other 'oldies' on Morecambe prom last Sunday, I think its a real gem of a motor but I'm not that well up on makes of vehicles this old but think its a Bedford.

    This image is quite an oldie itself taken many years ago and thought I'd share it with you.

    Edited to place this pic of the same van all those years later last weekend at Morecambe, but now I'm confused because it says its a Bradford......anyone enlighten me please.

    Ahhhh.....is this a Bradford Jowett?

    That's a nice one Pete, there is something written on the top of the chrome surround, but can't work it out.

    Here's a picture of my Mum and our next door neighbour with their two ex army pickups, both with custom backs, built by a neighbour.

    I think that's me in the back of the left hand van.
