"Dirty Dorris" the Bedford

[steve@black]

Hello there new to this but just had to add, have just got an old bedford with a crane on which was parked in the woods two years ago we checked oil water bit of fuel still in the tank two new batterys and it fired up like it was parked up five minutes previously ,some of the linkages for the throttle and transmision brake had seized but a bit of wd40 and its all good brakes are a bit spongy but nothing too hard to sort out I am sure. All in all excellent , anyone also know where I can get insurance it is ag registered I think classed as a forwarder
