Van but sort of Classic

[Scotty2]

Does anyone know of a good Bedford CF2 for sale?

I have a business that I want to run either a CF or older Transit, even a Citroen H van as a bit of a novelty. I don't want a "project" or rotbox, but a well preserved or restored older van.

I was tempted to an ex BT Bedford HA but it's not big enough.

Any other suggestions considered...

p.s. I have an old 1989 CF2 Ambulance I can use for mechanical spares hence that is top of the list. And I liked it.

It was looking good till I saw the price. Kinnell!

Yup that sort of thing but more affordable.

It's in East Yorkshire and Cheshire so no Kenjestion charge.

Commer you say. Would it be a two stroke? Mm Possably a bit much for a long run out.

Anyone going to the Classic Van show at Gaydon on 10th Aug? I can't, but if anyone from here is going could they look or ask if anyone has a Bedford CF2 tucked away anywhere and let me know.

Bump. Anyone going to the Classic Van day at Gaydon, please look out for a good CF2 van - not motorhome.

I say CF2 but CF1 would also tick the box.

(When I had a Maserati 228, I needed a new bearing in the 5 speed box. Turned out it was the same dog leg box from a CF and the parts were a considerably cheaper from Bedford sources...)

Just bought these pair. Needs work but rare beasts. Anyone know where I can get a 4x4 gearbox for them? Been converted to 2wd.

Hope to get one back on the road by the end of the year.

[Scotty2]

Was the 4x4 system flawed? Seems most have been "converted" to 2wd.

[Scotty2]

I have still not aquired the bits to get the 4x4 up and running. It will take longer than thought due to rairity.

I have found another to scratch my itch -and its a minter MOT'd low miler. Just taken delivery of a 2.0 SWB panel van. Like a 1 year old van inside and out. Will upload photos later.
