A blast from the past.

Hi to all,

A guy that I help five years ago when I supplied and fitted an engine for him turned up at my door, but not with his Bedford CF.
To ask if I could go to the garage it is being finished off in and see if I could help them with an oil leak.
It would seem the Bedford has not been on the road since I last drove it after fitting the engine, but has been in a number of different garages having all kinds of other work done.
But it seems to have suffered some frost damage due to not having had any anti-freeze.
So I have ordered the required gasket sets to try and get it back up and running, he has spent a fortune on this 1976 Bedford.

Wonky gearbox,

Hi to all,

Once they have the engine and gearbox out of his Bedford the gearbox will have to be checked because gear selection is to say the least shear luck.
So he might need another box or have that one rebuilt.
