[@martindaredare]

Thanks Richard for your support my friend its really appreciated

[@johnclarke25]

Great restoration again,remember dad having one of these on his scrap yard up till 1963 as ex army then a Canadian military cab Ford up till 67 or 68,which I'd still got the cmp now but he scrapped it when the yard shut.

[@martindaredare]

I would have liked to have seen that ,I do like older trucks and scrap yards

[@timosdinkydetailing]

I love it Martin. The colour scheme is stunning. I also remember doing the black mud guards after painting the cab. It was not fun taping the cab. There was plenty of over spray that got through the tape, which I had to polish off. That's a good tip for me. Cheers

[@martindaredare]

Thanks timo, that's the very reason I do my mud guards that way round now , it saves a lot of heartache .
All the best Martin

Another beauty, Martin! Love the old trucks. I remember as a kid in the 60's my Grandfather had a 40's Chevy flat bed farm truck that the front looked similar to the old Bedford.

[@martindaredare]

Thanks very much, my friend. Yes, the Chevy truck was of a similar style, just a lot bigger all the best Martin

Nice color scheme!

[@ianhow100]

Hi Martin great job on that one . I had to get a new winding gear from Flowers on mine. Cost £11 or thereabouts. I got 17mm tyres on mine and the Bedford dust cart (Chelsea fryer as I've heard it called), still ample clearance on the wheel arches

[@martindaredare]

Cheers, Ian .I thought that mech was expensive. Luckily, I had an old Chelsea fryer with a good mech, and I also used the base plate after breaking the tab of this one .
17 mm are a good fit .

[@metalman4141]

Great video as always, but somehow seemed strange without seeing your familiar blue jumper sleeves .

[@martindaredare]

Thanks for that, my friend it was warm in the shed but it will be back soon 🤣 all the best Martin

[@frasermartin6728]

That whole series of Bedfords is just delightful: really clever adaptations to give a whole range of superb toys. Not sure if the Commers are interchangeable.. but both are lovely. I like the colour scheme - quite bold and very traditional coachpainter! Really nice job, as usual, Mr Dare! Did you swap the baseplate?

[@martindaredare]

Thanks Fraser it's a possible match iam sure .

[@ads7live]

Excellent as always

[@martindaredare]

Thanks very much my friend its really appreciated

[@LaziLowcollectables]

Beautiful Martin ,Beautiful. Lovely colours ,nice finish ,I need to put my hands on one of these.cheers Laz

[@martindaredare]

[@lotharrenz4621]

the new colour scheme is refreshing. :) I like it a lot. ^^

[@martindaredare]

Thanks, Lothar. I appreciate your support, my friend

[@steaminglion4067]

Stunning model that one 👍

[@martindaredare]

Thanks very much my friend its really appreciated

[@geoffmower8729]

Hi Martin fabulous job love the blue, red and black combination. How did you fix the tab at the back? 🤔What a great idea putting the grit in the back really makes it. Remember that Holden Brougham I mentioned last week. Well it went to auction on the 19th and it sold for......$116.000 WOW I was expecting may be $60.000 tops I guess somebody really wanted it. Oh well It was museum quality and looked factory fresh so I don't think there would be many around like that. It only go's to show it's worth is how much someone is willing to pay for it. Have a relaxing time caravanning it must be great when you drive a long distance and your house is right there behind you. Stay safe and I'll catch you on the next one.👍🏻

[@martindaredare]

Cheers Geoff, I forgot to mention I replaced the base plate with the same truck I took the winding gear from, because I couldn't repair the tab on the original plate.
That was a good price, I bet the auction fees were a lot on that price .
All the best Martin

[@restorevideos9634]

Great video done great job

[@martindaredare]

Thanks very much my friend

[@alanculbert5146]

Lovely job Martin, looked a tad fiddly in places, but perseverance won the day again! When you crimp an axle over into a 'mushroom' do you just gently tap it with a small pein hammer?

[@martindaredare]

Thanks Alan yes when I do te axles I tap firmly and keep moving around. Depending on the thickness of the axle

[@alanculbert5146]

@martindaredare OK Martin thanks for that. All the best 👍

[@sandscratcherbri5574]

grand job

[@martindaredare]

Thanks very much my friend

[@gordonwebster3809]

turned out great that one i got one of these about 1960 when i was 8 loved it cheers martin .

[@martindaredare]

Thanks Gordon, I never had one as a youngster, so pleased to have one now .

[@nigelford936]

Great resto mate but change them racing slicks before you take it for an mot

[@martindaredare]

🤣 yeah we are going drag racing with it .

[@anthonywallace8534]

Hi Martin I thought you broke the rear tab and was going to glue it did you have another base for the model nice job perfect 😊

[@martindaredare]

Thanks Anthony, yes I did forget to mention that I used the base plate from the dust cart that I got the mech from as I couldn't successfully repair the broken tab .
All the best Martin

[@juliansimpkins7669]

Lorry is very neat. Do you have farm vehicles?

[@martindaredare]
