Well, that certainly is a unique Bedford.
Nice work Marcos.

Marcos

These are fantastic models and I love the paint jobs on them both. Nice to see an unusual modification that must have been fun to drive off road.

Thanks for showing these.

Hi Marcos,

Really neat work on the protype and also on the QLR. Really useful link, thanks

It needs some windows though I think. and if you got Bedford to Berlin for £6.99 you certainly got a bargin there.

Great work as always.

Dave, Nige and Alan, thanks...


It´s a pity that the Big Companies do not inject more trucks and softskins....

Hi Marcos,

Couldn't agree more, especially if the were British and Commonwealth versions!!

Cheers

Thanks Jjumbo !!!

all the best !!

Hi Marcos,

Just a thought for the next project. If you look at the tarp, it's folded at the front and rear rather than made to fit. This was common on the Bedfords. Don't forget to add some rope to the bottom of it to hold it down.

You can see the fold in this one a bit better



and on these two



Al

Thanks for the tip ( and congrats for the two amazing girls...)

All the best, Alan !!!
