"1986 Bedford CF2 Dropside Truck/Van - has to be one of the best if not the best example in the UK
Full
restoration carried out last year including a full bare metal respray
for the cab, the body has been removed and rebuilt with new wood and
treated then painted. All the hinges and black surrounds have been
stripped back and re-sprayed, the whole chassis has been stripped back
cleaned and repainted including all suspension parts and brand new rear
wheel guards in matching black. Has had over £5000.00 spent last year
alone on the exterior, running gear, brand new interior (professionally
trimmed) and new electrics.
This has the 2.0l petrol engine
having only done 78,000 miles from new which runs sweetly and pulls very
well, also has a 5 speed manual gearbox so it actually makes it very
useable. 3 owners from new and MOT till March 2017 - not a single
advisory on the last MOT, new exhaust fitted with custom made hanging
brackets, full set of brand new tyres with chrome hub caps for the
wheels, new front brake pads, rear drums stripped down cleaned then
serviced, fluids changed (engine oil. gearbox oil. axle oil. brake fluid
and coolant flush). usual service items such as oil and air filters,
new plugs, HT leads and rotor arm. New distributor cap. new battery
with isloater, new junction box, 2 new headlamps, front and rear lights
completely re-wired from new junction box, new adjuster rings for new
headlamps, new fan belt and radiator cap. The top end of the engine has
been rebuilt late last year with a new carburettor and put on a rolling
road to smoothen out the acceleration, also had fuel tank re-conditioned
as well as fuel pipes as it had been unused.
All the bodywork and
interior has been undertaken by a professional restoration service, the
interior has had the seats re-trimmed in original colours and
materials. new rubber matting for the floor and steps, front grille is
original and has been painted black with silver surrounds for the new
headlamps, new side mirrors (surprisingly hard to find). Has a tow bar
fitted with full electric hook up - I have used this to tow an open
trailer and it surprised me how well it pulls, it drives as well as most
modern vans do.
A superb example of an increasingly hard to find truck. please dont hesitiate to contact me (...)"
