An original Bedford CF complete with slanty type motor and draughts up your inside leg from the engine cover. I’ve had several of these over the years as vans and little pickups and the next model too which was the CF2. That one does look to be a thing of beauty, check out the air con.

Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,,other wise known as sliding doors :) :cool::)

I had a couple of these in the 80s. One had the bottom sliding door bracket broken, so it would swing out on the roundabout at the bottom of New Cheltenham Road in particular.

My old fella had a couple of these back in the 70’s, rear lights were really cool. We also had a Hillman Hunter as a hire car when we were in Gozo over 40yrs ago. Lovely island 👍
