1001 Van Ideas (Feb. 1978)

Here is another 1001 Van Ideas magazine scan from AndrewSaavedra on Flickr.

For Sale: MYSTIC FANTASY

I just seen on the BUGA forum that the famous Australian Bedford "Mystic Fantasy" is for sale! This show van was built 28 years ago and it's still amazing to look at. I don't even know where to start describing this van, just look at the photos!

The owner says:

"You will have to part with your savings or the banks to the tune of $22, 000 (AUD)
I will not sell it to anyone, you will need to convince me that you will treat it as I have."

"Tentation"

For Sale: 1987 CF2 panel van - UK

Another CF2 spotted on ebay UK. This one is a basic CF2 panel van, with a bulk head. The photos do much of the talking. Although it has suffered the punishment of a work van it isn't very badly treated. It has a 76000 mile 2.0cc engine with the zf 5 speed gearbox.

This van was one of the very last CF's made, the seller says:

"Here is a late registered Bedford CF2 250P they stoped making CFs in july 1987 but this one was registered in November 1987 so is an E reg insted of a D"

and ads,

"this van will be a classic of the future as there cant be many E registered CFs around , must be one of the last ones made "

There's two ways you can look at this van, either restore it to an original state or go all out and build a custom van. I would go the second choice, restoring this van to an original state isn't to hard but you will end up spending a large amount of time and money and when all is done and said you would probably have been happier with spending that money on a nice custom van rather than having a plain old van that cost a fortune to restore.
